1
Select a healthy, vigorously growing Meyer lemon tree. Make a cut in the bark of a small branch and lift the bark. Water the tree and try again in a few days if the bark is difficult to lift.
2
Cut several one-year-old branches with plump, rounded buds from the tree when the bark slips off the branch easily. Cut off the leaves, letting the petiole remain on the plant as a handle. Cut the new buds off the end and cut the branch into 8- to 12-inch pieces. Place them in a plastic bag.
3
Select a seedling sweet orange or rough lemon tree to be grafted. Remove all leaves and branches from the bottom 6 inches. Make a vertical cut in the bark of the rootstock 1 to 1 1/2 inches long, within 6 inches of the soil. Make a shorter cut at the top of the vertical cut to form a T. Lift the bark at the edges of the T.
4
Make a curved cut under a bud on the budwood, starting about 3/4 inch above the bud and coming out 1/2 to 3/4 inches below. Attach a small sliver of wood to the bud.
5
Slip the bud into the T. Press it down firmly using the petiole as a handle, and press the bark back in place. Wrap above and below the bud with grafting tape. Place the grafted tree in a semi-shady location.
6
Remove the grafting tape after 30 days. Cut off all rootstock growth above the graft when the grafted bud has sprouted and begun growing.
