Betsy,

Pawpaws graft pretty easily. I have used several methods and get similar results. Chip budding is the most efficient use of budwood. Whip and tongue works well. Currently I am using a modified side graft that gets very good cambium contact, even when scion wood is much smaller than the rootstock.

Hi folks,
I am planning to graft varietal wood onto my relocated root suckered pawpaw 'trees'. They appear to be doing well 9 months after their move as we have been blessed with a wet year.

My research suggests that chip budding is the preferred grafting method and to do so just as the trees' buds start to swell.

If anyone has experience with this and has a different recommendation, I would love to learn about it.

Thanks,
Betsy Hilborn
