It wasn’t planned at all (the best things aren’t), but our Swedish guests Christian Odberger and Dante Hellstr\u00f8m stayed over until Monday evening to dig up a few (!) must-have plants from my garden. Our “camper” Berit \u00a0B\u00f8rte also accepted the offer to stay over until Monday. \u00a0Christian had brought grafting material with him and kindly volunteered to do a grafting course for us, so here are the pictures of Christian, Berit and my garden helper Lorna from Belfast grafting some 6 varieties of apple on to a wild apple tree, the seeds of which I collected at Warsash (on the solent), Hampshire UK some 13-14 years ago!! AND it was a beautiful afternoon too! See also\u00a0http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/?p=4617<\/a><\/p>\n
