Odd grafting method aims to alter walnut wood
In southern Mexico some forest owners graft walnut trees by inserting small nuts from top varieties into root areas sealed with wax. The process is said to change grain and color, a practice inspired by Tabasco Indians known for coloring woods by inserting nuts into living roots. Several haciendas are testing coarser trees with this idea.
