bonsai dictionary		 GRAFT>GRAFTING>THREAD GRAFTING -

Threadgrafting is a process where a hole is made through the trunk and the the SCION (new shoot) is then threaded through the hole and fixed into position - after exposing the CAMBIUM of the shoot.

As the scion and the trunk continue to grow they swell and are forced together; eventually grafting together.

This MEthod is suitable for DECIDUOUS and BROADLEAF>BROADLEAF trees but not for CONIFERous SPECIES where complete DEFOLIATION of the scion will result only in the death of the shoot.
