[@seniorblkbyn4703]

That's incredible. What does he do with the long stem he cut off? Can you propagate that too?

[@je5107]

It's like playing with legos! That's so cool. Great video.

[@elishlalvarmoi913]

I love your dad. So easy to understand his instructions.

[@skeeter9280]

This is an exceptional video - please thank your dad for sharing his knowledge. Impressive!

[@joeschmoe3815]

Simple and clear explanation. I thank you and your father very much! Your father has a great deal of knowledge on adenium.

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

Thank you for your comment and support. Stay tuned! I will be working on new videos and making better produced videos. Still learning myself.

[@delfincorcolon6942]

I'm from the phil. I really enjoy your vidio... can you help m.. where can i buy the different varities of adenium... tanx nd more power....

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

@@delfincorcolon6942 Thanks for your comment and support. I don't order plants so not sure of the best resource or supplier for you. I would first check locally or in your country and see if they have contacts in other countries to help you order. That way they can help you with import laws and process. There are many suppliers out there but the challenge is to find a reliable one. Plus shipping cost is quite high too. You also may want to research and check on facebook as you can ask more questions directly on there to companies and understand their process before you buy. Usually better to buy in bulk and perhaps you can team up with many of your friends to order at once. Hope this helps a little. Take good care!

[@Crystal-be9ze]

I have never seen such a detailed explanation on this, I appreciate the time you both took to explain this, thank you!

[@chelin7023]

I just read some of the comments about this video and I have to apologize for not thanking you and your awesome dad for sharing such valuable knowledge and posting this very descriptive video. Thank you! If your dad happens to be in central Florida, I would love to buy from him. I'll check it out. 🌸❤️

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

Thank you for watching!

[@usafiah2]

waaaaaa thank you so much for sharing! say hi to your dad and may he be as happy as he is in the video alwAYS!.

[@teresalasam2302]

Thank you both so much for sharing your Dad’s knowledge of grafting! I just want to ask if you water them right after grafting or not. How often do you water them...i have a root rotten adenium and i want to save the upper part of it for grafting. Is it possible? Thank you for your support. God bless

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

Hi after you graft you should put it in the shade for around 3-4 weeks so watering is very limited. Just as long as it doesn’t dry out for too long. For your rotten root, you can use the top part and cut it to graft on another root but I would do it soon before the rot eventually spreads more. Best of luck!

[@johnsonjgreenidge1956]

I tried this and it worked; Awesome! love it more than the V grafting

[@lancenicholls1693]

Great video , simple technique , just got some cuttings from a friend , will give this a go .

[@almagarde6792]

That’s a very good explanation you know what you doing. Your dad

[@jasuppen9290]

That was awesome. The best part was looking for that rubber band, sounded like he was tearing apart the place. LOL I hate it when you can't find something so small like that!

[@adrianomikami]

i did it about two weeks ago (03/9) and I just came here to see when should I take the pkastic off. Thank you and your dad fir the video!

Hi~ my desert rose plant looks like it’s sick. The leaves turned yellow and falling off. Even the baby leaves sprouting turned yellow and falling off. Some of the green ones are curling up with tiny brown sticky stuff on it. It had spider mites or something on few places, so I sprayed some baking soda water on it. How can I save this plant?

[@tylerjimenez7801]

Very Interesting, I wonder if you can use this grafting technique on a mango tree, then again use it on any other fruit tree. Any thoughts about that??

I followed his way... but my graft got soggy... should i water it in the green house??? Thanks for the amazing vidoe

[@ezduzit777rgc]

my back yard was totally broiled by cold weather (29 deg in Florida)...all of my desert roses were fried....some are turning to mush all the way to the ground...some are brown and soft most of the way down....how far can I cut them back? Will/would just the root push up a shoot? Some of the caduces are oozing think paste....the weather has broken already andI can cut them any time....got any good cutting/recovery tips????????

[@smvelvet46]

This is really neat. Got my first one today

[@19padmore74]

I will try to cover more in my next video for you. hopefully in the next week or so. been flooding here in Texas. thanks for your comment and watching.

[@jyack275]

Thank you for the informative video. I love the glue idea.

[@MarginWalker]

Thanks for the upload- Can you do anything with the long cuts after you remove them? Can they be rooted and grow into a new plants?

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

Yes you can try to root them in loose soil or vermiculite. I never tried it because I seen it never has a large base. but if you are growing just for the flower then I would recommend you graft it on another plant. thanks for the comment.

[@MrChadsGrandma]

Fantastic! Both you and your father =)

[@gingasnapz]

Love this video. Very informative. I have a question. I have had a desert rose 2 years and don't know and understand what it is doing. it has 2 brances attached to the base. keeps growing up skinny and tall. looks not appealing at all. and always only has 4 leaves on. drops leaves all the time. How can i shorten and give it more branches. there is nothing on you tube and I really need help. Also i noticed there is a branch growing out of the bulb on his plant. just a little branch. did he graph that on? ty for reading Ginger :)

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

it would be hard to decipher but could be not enough sun or too little or too much water. You can do some hard pruning to add more branches. Try repotting with new and we'll draining soil too. let me know if some of your changes works. good luck and thanks for commenting.

[@gingasnapz]

thank you so much, i was thinking of cuting it right back. the plant looks like a v. so i am going to cut it a cm or 2 above the v split. is that ok to cut there? ty for responding. ty so much :)

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

+gingasnapz yes you can do it above the V i would do it a few inches above it so it will not look too clumped together. thanks

[@gingasnapz]

i did it. but close to v, i hope i didn't ruin it by cutting it so close. I hope this helps this plant grow or do something. ty so much for getting back to me. keep up the awsome video's. watch them all the time and saved in my playlists. your a great help. Ginger :)

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

+gingasnapz thank you so much. I will try to post more videos. We can all learn from each other.

[@ezduzit777rgc]

this is an excellent video...I truly appreciate you and your father... Question is: is there any one color or type of desert rose that seems to ACCEPT the new graft....the white you grafted numerous times looked very healthy. thank you richard in Port Charlotte, florida

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

thank you for your comment Richard. So far all the colors and varieties have been accepting the grafts well. Although it is obvious to graft during the warm weather, my dad has also been about 75% successful grafting during the winter as well, of course keeping the temperature warm in his greenhouse.

Hi could you tell me what minimum diameter and height should the scion be for it to have a good chance to work?

[@growinggreenthumbs7497]

I have seen my dad try as small as half an inch in diameter with success. I think you can use a fairly young branch with some growth. warm and some humidity is key..
