Grafting A Citrus Tree

I just read a post from last year about grafting citrus. Any chance you could add some pictures, or share a site that has pictures, as an example?

I had a Meyer lemon that died back to the root stock after an unusually hard winter last year. I've got a friend that has one that I could get some cuttings off of, so I'd like to see it before I mess something up trying.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, I have no feedback for the lemon tree graft. My citrus trees have been frozen from winter cold here in Florida, \I now have new growth above the graft on root. Will this affect the fruit taste? Should I replant new trees? Lemon grapefruit and Honey belle Orange.
thank you.

I would like to know how to graft onto a citrus tree. I have a satsuma tree that froze down to it's original root stock and ever since makes lovely blooms, but the fruit is nasty.


I have a horrible lemon tree that makes fruit the size of grapefruit, thick skinned, and loose pulp, awful spikes and lots of seeds. I want to graft a naval orange to the stump. Where would I get a branch to graft and what would be the best method?
