Comments (1)No need to graft. The purpose of grafting is to take a fruit age twig off a mature tree and attach it to a better root stock to get a good tree with strong disease resistant roots and get fruit sooner. Since your twig is a baby it will not fruit until it is a large tree with it's own root or another trees roots' Yes, you can take buds off your tree and graft them on a desirable root stock. If this tree is your's to keep I would be inclined to keep it on it's own roots. You can still take buds of it and graft to a rootstock of your choice. That is what I had planned to do with a meiwa kumquat and a poncirus trifoliata rootstock. I found it to be so difficult I will keep my tree on its own roots....See Moreeahamel

Mike, we cook the most amazing Hmong (Laotian) curry soup using the Kaffir lime leaves. It's called Ka-poon (as we would write it in English).Josh

11 years agoThanks, John, Wes, and Kristopher! Yeah, I like food with unique flavor, whether bold or subtle.
Kristopher, I photo-documented the ingredients and process of making Ka-poon, and I'll have to write it up. Cans of red curry paste, coconut milk, a bundle of Kaffir Lime leaves, damned near a big bottle of fish sauce, and that's the base.....lots of other good stuff goes in....bamboo shoots, banana blossom, shaved carrot, onion, big chunks of galanga, lemon grass, pounded chicken....

Serge, we buy the banana blossom at different Asian stores or markets...it's canned. Here's a pic:
