How to graft rat tail palm

Grafting period

The best time for grafting is between May and June. During this period, the growth of rat tail palm is relatively vigorous, and the wounds left by grafting can heal quickly. Therefore, May to June is the best time for grafting.


Selection of grafted rootstock

The choice of rootstock for grafting rat tail cactus can be an upright columnar cactus to make up for its lack of creeping growth, such as the large flowered snake whip column or the prickly pear cactus.


Grafting steps

Choose the top of the modified stem of the rat tail palm, cut off a scion about eight to ten centimeters long, and graft it onto the selected rootstock. Generally, the wound will heal in two to three months.

Maintenance after grafting

After grafting, pay attention to ventilation and sufficient sunlight. Avoid exposure to the sun in the summer, and pay attention to keeping warm in the winter to keep its living temperature above ten degrees Celsius.
