Will they take ? %26amp; will they stay true, or revert to the color of the root stock ?
Rhododendrons / Grafting... Can I graft different colors of Rhodie's on the same plant?
Yes you can, I recomend using patch bud graffting. They will stay true if you can get the bud to live. The process goes like this: cut a square patch containing a bud from one plant, cut the same size patch from another plant, replace one patch with the other. Tie a rubber band to hold the patch in place but don't cover the bud itself. Do this in the spring when the bark slips easily it may take several tries, but it is less invassive than haking off a limb.

Reply:Yes, and they stay true. My sister has one with red, white, and blue flowers on it.
There are many kinds of plants that such grafting works on, and I have 2 apple trees that each have 5 kinds of apples.
