Given the time of year I would be looking at trying some chip budding lower
down on the stock then you can try grafting above later in the season.

Subject: Grafting alders
I am trying to graft alder seedlings (grown over winter under lights, so 2-3
mm diameter stems) onto fruiting spurs of "adult" trees, but I can't get them
to take.
The woodwork looks OK, what am I doing wrong?
I am told that the cultivars "aurea" and "imperialis" are often grafted by
nurseries.
Does anybody have any knowledge in this field or know of somebody that does?
