Abstract:Grafting periods and grafting methods of Michelia maudiae Dunn were studied .The results indicated:the survival rates of shield-like bud grafting in all experimental periods rate are very low;scion grafting in middle and late March is the best,while in other periods are very bad;scion grafting with top bud is the best shoot grafting method,its grafting survival rate is up to 95.8%,and that of scion grafting with upper end of shoot without top bud wrapped is better up to 85.0%,both are very significantly or significantly higher than that of scion grafting with upper end of shoot without top bud unwrapped at same period.
