hello everyone i have a question. i just wonder what type of weeping trees you use to graft to make a Lavender Twist Redbud ?
Lavender Twist ® is a trademark name for Cercis canadensis ‘Covey’. You would have to graft a scion of that onto a rootstock. I am not sure what rootstocks are possible, but a Cercis canadensis seedling would seem a likely candidate. All Lavender Twist ® redbud plants are grafts originating from one chance tree. Since this is a patented plant you would have to get the rights (purchase) to propagate the tree from the patent holder.
thank you so much! this helps bit. So you can Trade mark and patient a plant? i thought you can't patient plants because nobody owns it? unless? i guess you create your own stain there grafting?" Also If anyone else can help? and has grafted these beautiful trees, what Type of root stock did you use?
