hey john how are you ; in 2.5 years i havent had experience other than this playing that i have been doing. my gardeners common sense told it would work. most tree's that grow this vigorously will work especially when young and there is no bark. success has already been had the ash do not take long to graft but first year is delicate, i imagine by next year it will have no chance of coming apart. they were originaly binded heavily but not necessary now and it doesn take long for the bindigs to cut in. presentation is left to the element of surprise. we are a fair way off yet. personally in years to come i dont believe you will see 3 individual trunks, but one thing is for sure. it will what it will be, and that i look forward to very much.
