Root Stock: Mature, healthy adenium plants at least a year old are used as stock. The stem which will bear the graft should be slightly woody, having a thickness of about half to three-fourths of an inch. The rootstock should be in its active growth period. In Northern India, this period lies between late February to October, March and September being the best months for grafting. 2. Scion: The cutting from the plant to be propagated is called the scion. The scion too should be from a plant in its active growth period. The chosen stem may not be as woody or mature as the rootstock. Its thickness should be roughly equal to or less than the stock. 3. Sharp Cutter: A thin blade knife or a cutter is needed for cutting the stock and scion. 4. Clear, plastic strip: An approximately 1″ by 5″ strip is taken from a clearplastic sheet. 5. Clear plastic  bag: To protect the graft and maintain humidity within it. 6. Tape and tying material: Needed for securing the stock with  the scion and securing the plastic bag. 7. Disinfectant: Alcohol can be used to disinfect the tools.   The process for flat-cut graft  The steps for grafting are: 1. Cut an Adenium scion that is around 1″ to 2″ in length with a sharp, disinfected tool. It may have1-2 nodes along its length. If the branch is long, it can be cut into several pieces to serve as scions. One should not touch the freshly cut wounds of both the stock and scion to avoid infection. The top and bottom parts of the scion should be marked. 2. The stem of the rootstock is cut at least 3-4 inches from the base or if it is a single stem, a horizontal cut is made 3-4 inches above the caudex. The cut should be clean and as flat as possible. 3. Now the scion is placed on top of the stock branch with the correct orientation. That is, the top side of the scion should remain so after placing it on the stock. 4. Neat cuts of both the scion and stock will ensure that there are no bumps and ridges on the surface and hence no air gaps. 5. Place a clear, clean plastic strip over the scion and pull down the ends tightly past the grafting point. 6. The ends of the strip are then secured tightly with tying material around the rootstock branch. Now the scion becomes firmly tied to the stock branch. 7. The entire graft is then covered with a clear bag and tied loosely at the base. This will protect the scion as well as maintain humidity while the graft heals. 8. The grafted plant is kept in shade for about two to three weeks or till the scion shows signs of sprouting. 9. The clear bag is then removed and the plant gradually moved into full sunlight.
