It's always so cool when I see a tree you are working with that is actually in my garden, the birds always love the sweet sour fruit

I've been binging your videos, I discovered your videos after watching Garden Answer while I was researching perennials for my bee and butterfly garden. It's so cool to see a kiwi doing these kinds of videos, it makes it so much easier to compile accurate information for our area 😀 my partner and I just bought our first home and are lucky enough to have a couple of mature fruit trees, including a loquat, I'm so excited for it to fruit!

Thanks for the support Jamie. Congrats on your guys first home! A bonus to have some mature fruit trees too :)

That looks like something I could do. Thanks never considered doing something so hard core. Just cutting the top off a perfectly good looking tree. All that work could die over the weekend. Thanks for the months of waiting and editing. Nice video.

Well done. I appreciate the follow up on the trees in multiple stages.

Excellent video! I've just recently been infected by the loquat bug. This is the first grafting video I have watched, and already, all my basic questions are answered. Great filming and great narration!

You’re a smart guy. No beating round the bush with delaying tactics. Thank you.

This video is really helpful. I learned that I can grow or propagate loquat from the stem.

Amazing! A person actually has progress updates for their 'how to' gardening video... and a 2nd video with even further down the road. What do you know.. someone that actually knows what they are doing! 🙂 Thank you for taking the very long time it took to put this together. You are appreciated! 🌱

Just what I needed. I didn’t know seedlings take so long to fruit. I have one store bought grafted loquat and several others grown from seed. I’ve only grafted an orange before, keen to get into this further.

I’ve always wanted to learn grafting, thank you for this tutorial, it looks so easy!❤️

Thanks for posting great descriptive videos on grafting, I have plans to graft some branches this upcoming spring but had no idea how to do it.

Planted some seeds outside in the Netherlands (from seed out of fruits from Spain) now 3 years old and doing great. Never expected that they would actually grow over here.

I had no idea you could do that to plants. Crazy.

Thank you for another great video! This trees remind me of my childhood in the brazilian countryside.

Thank you for sharing how to graft a loquat tree.greetings from Japan.

My grandmother taught me grafting, this year, and the process was almost exacly the same except we used a kind of black tar to seal the grraft from the water

We used to eat them on the way home from school from an overhanging farmers tree. That was in Auckland. I saw one for sale in a garden center a few months ago - we live in the tropics now. Might try my luck to see if it can handle our high humidity and horizontal rain. Love your channel btw.

Thanks for making this gardening thing look, well not easy, but at least doable. Cheers and keep up the good work

Im in florida and have a huge loquat tree on my property that I planted in 2010. It was a teeny tiny little thing and now it is absolutely enormous!! I make loquat jelly every year and give out. I pick so much fruit and im probably only getting half of the fruit it produces. The animals and birds enjoy the rest. The only thing I do is water it. Its wet here where I live but I make sure I keep it watered well. No fertilizer. You can use the leaves for tea. Its pretty good. It has a light floral green taste and aroma. I use fresh leaves and dry some too. 😎😎

Ooh wow, what a fantastic idea . That may actually work , the branch is Mature so it has the fruiting hormones already. Amazing! ❤️

Thank you for showing us the results

Magic! Science! Nature!

This is fascinating stuff!

Thanks for the video once again! I always appreciate that you take the time in your planning to show the long term success of your experiments in gardening! It was really nice to see what the graft looked like after that time too, so we can compare (as they sometimes look pretty lumpy and ugly). I have been trying here (South Australia) to graft avocados this year - up to my 6th attempt. It looks like one of my older goes is working after nearly 3 months, finally budding!!! Keep up the great work and enjoying the blessing of time in the garden!

Great video. I did the same way as yours but I covered the whole stem with plastic bag. I think It helps the grafting heal faster. After 4 weeks, I saw 4 or 5 leaves came out.

Such a good video mate, with awesome results!! Grafting is good fun

Those trees are brilliant. I wish I could grow them at my house, but it's too cold. If I'm in the city in fruiting season it's the best thing walking by a tree on the street and grabbing a snack! A few streets have them on the footpath too (council planted), so it's totally fair game! My Dad used to use electrical tape to graft apple trees when we had an orchard. So if that's all you have lying around at home it's probably fine!

Thanks Kiwi grower. Just started getting into your videos. I like your style. I'd like to see a video of grafting compared to air layering. Which would produce better or faster results? If you haven't heard of air layering, it's best started in early spring. Hope you'll look into it. Thanks again.
