Types of Orchards
1. Budding - The process by which a scion with a bud is inserted into the
rootstock to unite and grow as one. It is done by choosing and cutting a
bud from one plant and attaching it to another plant. The bud must fit well
to the mother plant. When the bud grows big enough it will become part of
the plant.
PIVOT 4A CALABARZON AFA G6 14
2. Grafting — In this method, a new plant is grown by inserting a scion
into the stock so that they will form a union and grow together. The scion
and the rootstock should come from the same specie or family.
3. Marcotting or Air Layering — Air layering is a propagation method for
woody plants that allows youto root branches while still attached to the
parent plant. It is useful for plants that are hard to propagate by cutting.
Trees suited for orchard gardening based on:
