1、 Can it be grafted

Willow cannot be grafted with rose, because the two trees belong to different families. Willow is a general name and belongs to willow family, while rose is a shrub of Rosaceae. The closeness of the two is too poor, so the affinity is not high and it is difficult to graft successfully. If roses want to be grafted, they need to choose the appropriate rootstocks first. The stronger the affinity, the higher the success, and both can heal and grow. Willows can also be grafted with the same families and genera, such as golden willow, weeping willow and other ornamental willows, and cannot be grafted with other tree species

2、 How to graft rose

1. Time: the time should be in the spring or autumn of each year. These two time periods are the most appropriate. The time difference should not be too long, otherwise it will hinder the survival rate

2. Rootstock: for the choice of rootstock, you can choose wild robust rose. Its root system is very developed and has strong vitality, which is suitable for growth

3. Operation: clear and level the outside of the rootstock, cut a T-shaped knife edge, and peel off the skin in the middle without too deep. Insert the scion inside, with the side with bud eye facing upward, wrap and fix it with plastic bag on the outside, and wrap it tightly
