You folks will be happy to know that a full six days after my grand foray into the grafting of various pear cultivars onto by backyard trees, the grafted scions still look for all the world to be alive. They haven't turned gray or withered or anything. Granted, the cold weather has contributed to the non-failure of the grafts in immediate and spectacular fashion, but given my inexperience at this, I halfway expected them to, you know, explode or burst into flame or something. All the grafts could still easily fail, but every day that they don't, I take as a positive sign.
