About this episode
Ken Lain discusses the advantages of grafted trees over those grown from seed.
Why should you choose and plant a grafted tree rather than one grown from seed? Mountain Gardener Ken Lain shares the science behind grafting, and how it results in the healthiest, most beautiful and best shaped trees. Grafted fruit trees bear better fruit, and if you plant one from Watters, it is grown and mature enough to bear the year you plant it. https://themountaingardener.podbean.com/ 🥕Ken Lain, The Mountain Gardener #WattersGardenCenter, #GardeningTips, #TheMountainGardener, #KenLain, #GraftedTrees, #GraftedFruitTrees, #TreeGraftingScience
