My Great grand parents who originally from Lebanon, used to graft the
wild olives. They used to wrap the graft with the bark of green

with a peice of cloth.
I'm the only grafter in recent history in my family, but I've got a friend
from IA who remembers tagging along with her grandfather and watching him
bind grafts with cotton string, sealing the graft union with a liberal
slathering of fresh cow manure.
