I have more Meyer lemons than I can use, and not much space left for more trees.

Can I graft a Bearss lime onto the Meyer? Does this affect the flavor of the resulting Bearss limes? The branches I would want to graft are between 2" and 4" diameter, what is the best grafting technique for this size branch?

Thanks,

No problem with the grafting. I'd recommend texas bark graft.

Usually when the plant is flushing the bark will be slipping.
