Successful Grafting of Yellow-Poplar ...a matter of timing

The University of Tennessee has been involved in a yellow-poplar improvement program since 1960. The State Division of Forestry joined this program in 1967.

Data analysis revealed that grafts made later in the spring usually had better survival rates.
