Not only is this legit, it’s unbelievably neat and tidy! I’ve done some of the grafting techniques, but I tend to (because *gestures to self*) end up cutting my hands more than the plant material.

Grafting is really common. Most edible fruit trees, cultivated roses, some tomato plants etc are grafted onto a different rootstock as standard- you can control size that way, or make a useful but weak plant much stronger. As long as your two plants are related closely enough and you have cambium to cambium connection (cambium is the thin layer of green under the bark), you can do all sorts of weird shit - like a single tree that gives you plums, cherries, apricots, peaches and almonds.

And layering is fun! Free plants! The plant will sometimes do this itself when a branch touches the ground and starts sprouting roots.

Wondered why I don’t know any beautiful fish species off the top of my head so of course moseyed over to Google to help resolve this matter and now I’m hypnotized by this image of fish scales that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service posted on Medium
