Awesome. I wonder if the fruit it bears tastes a bit different from non-spliced fruit trees?

I had wondered if this could be done as I researched growing apple trees awhile back. You can't just take the seed from an Ambrosia or Honey Crisp and plant it. you have to take a root stock and graft a limb to get the exact variety you want.

Grafting has been around for quite some time, but that looks like a pretty cool looking combo.
I'm wondering how you would spray such a tree for pests. Every fruit tree is a little different and gets treated as such. Some treatments overlap different species, but others are very different and I believe improper timing can even be harmful to some trees production. |
