Thanks Andrew. Approach over thread graft as it will use less energy from the root stock I'm presuming?

Yeah, to be honest I’m not a big grafter, but I reckon it would be less destructive to the tree if you are not drilling through it and rather just matching up the cambiums.

Dead. Survived 12 months without pushing a bud then finally keeled over. But there's now free space on the bench!

Bugger.
But, like you say, free bench space and a reclaimed pot!

I think the writing was pretty much on the wall Pearcy. I am sure you will have something to replace it.
If not pm me
Cheers

Thanks for the offer Kirky, much appreciated. I believe I may be in need of a little space anyway haha. Never enough space in my yard!
