Whip tongue grafting is “Grafting 101”. It’s the place to start because the specific cutting technique you’ll learn is also used in other grafting methods.

Grafting your own fruit trees is a great way to change varieties in your garden, preserve a heritage variety, or add a polliniser to a tree that flowers well but doesn’t produce much fruit.
