Walt. I just have no luck in the V grafts. I don't think I have the proper tools to make the V ones. A grafting tape/kit has been on my wish list and I think I will for sure get one. I mostly like to grow from seeds but as you know, it is hard to get those different colored adeniums. So now that I have them I want to make sure I have a "duplicate" in case the main one goes kaput since adeniums are very susceptible to rot. More so than plumerias.
Maybe we should keep this chat "alive" and would love to see your grafting photos here. I will post my successful and "failed" attempts on this thread. (Mostly failed
for now.)
