Grafting Japanese Maples

17 years ago

We have a nursery growing dissectums, mainly Crimson Queen and Garnet. We are having a hard time locating grafted liners to grow out. We have been told that if we could provide the scion wood, we could get the grafts. Can anyone help me by telling me how much of a limb to cut and, or how to cut it so that it will live through transit and be grafted? Thanks.
