Hi NAFEX friends,

I'm thinking of grafting hachiya persimmon onto a mature fuyu tree for 
my sister while visiting her for Christmas, so spring/summer grafting is 
not an option. Is winter grafting in a mild climate (San Francisco, CA 
area, about 2 months until spring) ok to do or would it be a waste of 
time? I would likely do a bark graft and can make 4 - 6 grafts around 
the tree to boost the likelihood of taking. Any thoughts and opinions 
are appreciated. Thanks.
