Hi Michael, yes, I remember about bud grafting. I'll post the pictures here. There are 12 of them. Someone else just inquired about those pictures and information by dmail so I'll post them here for everyone to see.

Brad, I'm in the same underconfident boat, but because my Blue Velvet was rotting, I had to graft it even though I had not been successful at grafting before. Luc and Carol were leaving for Thailand soon, and I didn't want to stress the cutting even more by shipping it to Florida. I relied heavily on Kukiat's instructions and encouragement.

Thank you, Brad, for the kind words and compliments. I just persevered and got lucky. I feel that you can do this too and encourage you to try with cheap ones at first. I am so sorry about the losses that you had while they were at Florida Colors being grafted. You do have some awesome rooting talents, but I think you will find that grafting is easier once you get the hang of it. It is faster too than rooting. I'd love to see pictures of those Moragne Rainbows of yours when they bloom. Congrats on getting them to root!

Here is Picture No. 1 of Kukiat's:
