Anyone else thought of trying this?

I have seen it done here in North Carolina. It wasn't at a commercial berry farm, but at a fruit collectors garden. He did the grafting and had many around the yard. He also grafted on to Sparkleberry and his trees were old and very impressive.

Im thinking of the ease of netting and collecting fruit. Found a source of sparkle berry seeds and may try it.
