“How to” DVD Now Available.
Graft Your Own Beautiful Japanese Maples at Home!
Japanese maple trees are by far some of the most beautiful and the most desired plants in gardens around the world. Those who have them love them, those who don’t covet them. But in garden stores they can be pricey! And the rare varieties are really hard to find even if you are willing to pay the price.

One of the reasons that they are pricey and difficult to find is because the most reliable means of propagating them is through the process of grafting the desired variety onto a rootstock grown from seed. Most growers just won’t be bothered to do grafting at their nurseries, therefore the supply of these beautiful trees is limited.
Grafting is not difficult! It just takes a little time and some patience. I’ve found that lots and lots of people are really interested in learning the art of grafting. Some for profit, many just for the satisfaction of producing beautiful plants that others don’t have, and cannot but at the corner market.

The tree on the cover of the DVD is a Waterfall Japanese maple. This is the fall color. Waterfall is a Laceleaf Japanese maple but instead of red leaves it has very delicate green leaves and spectacular fall color. With this DVD you’ll learn how to make all kinds of beautiful Japanese maples.
In this DVD I walk you through the process of growing Japanese maples from seed. The seedlings that you grow can easily be sold, or used for your own grafting. The demand just for Japanese maple seedlings is huge because those with good red color can be grown on to small trees and sold for as much as $50.00 or more, green seedlings are in great demand to those who want them for grafting.
In the second part of the DVD we do hands on grafting showing you exactly what tools and supplies you need (not many!) and step by step how to make the graft unions, when and how to collect the scion wood, how to prepare the seedlings for grafting and how to care for the grafted plants after you have grafted them.
I promise you, once you become a successful grafter there are few things you can do with plants that will give you more satisfaction. Your friends, family and neighbors will regard you as some kind of a gardening guru once you know how to graft. They will be in awe of you.
But more important than that, when you are gone, and we’re all leaving this life eventually, the plants that you graft today will live on long after you and I are gone. I can’t even begin to tell you how important that will be to your family and your dearest of friends.

Cannot believe the time wasted by those who send most of these comments. But I am one who will not know what to do with the completed grafted branches, actually I’m not sure what a completed plant will look like. And how do I know when a plant is big enough to sell? I was discouraged from trying Japanese Maples because it apparently takes seven years to get them to selling size. I really need to create some income sooner than that.
What plants can I do for Christmas or early spring sales? Is is it too late for other plants this year?? And remember how much colder it is here in Iowa than Ohio — I’m thinking I might need a green house ?? Hope not since I simply cannot afford such an expense right now. And probably can’t get a permit to build it since the only level land behind my house is over a storm sewer easement.
Would you explain again what markings will show the “purity” of the plants I buy for cuttings and also keep me from commiting violation of the nursery’s rights? Like committing violation of copyright and/or plagerism?
My yard is clay, full sun, terraced and covered with river rock and mud on plastic which I cut through with every plant I am trying to grow on it. All I can think is to try for small plots of growing plants where I can carry bags of compost.
I just found your blog as well. I loved receiving your encouraging emails and letter. But I feel like I am missing a great deal of information and I am not intuitive about gardening.
Peggy,
Japanese maples are about the slowest way possible to make money in this business. I just posted and article on this blog about making money with ornamental grasses. Make sure you check that out. All of your other questions are answered in my system. https://mikesbackyardnursery.com/2013/07/how-to-turn-50-into-1000-growing-ornamental-grass/

Mike love the video and all your work that you do to help us learn. trying to save enough to get your system.. the only thing i feel you left out of the video was the completed plant,some folks might not know what to do with the branches on the graft wood. again THANKS James
Mike
If I purchase the DVD @ 19.95 plus shipping, will I be able to purchase seedling, scion wood from you or as a member to backyard nursey?
Darryl,
No, the grafting DVD is a stand alone product and not connect with our Backyard Nursery Program, http://freeplants.com/wanted.htm at all. Thanks for asking. I really did the DVD for those who are not interested in that program.
and whats up with all the beggars?
im curious if these grafting techniques apply to other species of tree? im very interested in that part of it.
My email said it was 50% off but I can’t find a price either. Hummm…
Mike
What is the deal for the grafting dvd?
Is it free or what?
Scott
Scott, it is not free. I wish it could be, but if we don’t charge for a few things I couldn’t justify the thousands of hours we spend creating the free content that we do. We had a drawing and three people did get it free. Here’s the page with the details. http://freeplants.com/graft-japanese-maples.html
