Hi guys, I'll start with Dennis's questions, "What did you graft, and what worked/what didn't? And how long has it been?"

I grafted Arborea, Sanguinea and Vulcanicola on it a two year old insignis type hybrid Brugmansia!

The arborea and some of the Vulcanicola where compact or dwarf type chimaeras...none of these dwarf chimaeras grafted succesfully!

Sanguinea and vulcanicola appear to have grafted! I'm bearing in mind that some grafts can work and then even up untill a year later can still be rejected!

It's been a few weeks...I never dated them...I guess I should have!

Thanks everyone for your kind words..and here's 2 photos Painted lady! The first is a sanguinea on insignis graft and the second is a close up of the same graft with the lower part of the teflon tape removed so I could show you guys!

BTW, I've learned some methods of overcomeing pollination barriers! As soon as my Arborea blooms again, i'm gonna get working on it!

Best wishes always,

Bruno
