Wanted to ask this since both E. Parkeriana and E. Pitanga both
have multiple similarities to Uniflora, including leaves and fruits.

I have had issues trying to mix even very close species like calycina onto corg. I won't say it's impossible though, there are a variety of reasons why my grafts may have failed.

If I can get my hands on uniflora scions in a few years, when my parkeriana gets large enough to be grafted, I’ll try grafting one on and see if it holds.

just curious as to why you would want to put uniflora on parkeriana-

if anything I would think you would want to do the opposite
