Sorry if my previous post did not make any sense. I am more than just a little paranoid. But now, I realize that there is some hope. I will be looking forward to possibly an all-nighter when the graft wood from Joe arrives, so I can graft them right away.

It's interesting that this would happen to me, when just a couple of days ago, I was looking at my Citronello, and I was wondering if it's not too late to graft into it. And whether I could still get grafting wood from anyone.

Well, Joe, if you saved any of the wood you cut out from your professor's giant pummelo, I would be very interested in some. For that matter, I would be very interested in anything else. I believe that my Citromello can host quite a few varieties.

Also, Joe, I have a couple of larger (2-ft) Calamondins that are growing a couple of branches at the base that have thorns on them. They have the regular citrus leaves, not trifoliate. If they are the correct size, will these be useful. I can do it for the most damaged plant, while waiting for the wood from you.

Talking about getting bark from the Citromello, the timing could not have been worse. It snowed last night, and now it's snowing again. Would have been pretty difficult trying to control my knife cutting, trying to get the bark, while I'm shivering. I was just so ecstatic with your suggestion and offer.

Thanks again so much.
