Budding and grafting of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) is usually performed in the spring or fall seasons. It is timed just before spring to ensure a good bud union or in early autumn season to avoid frost injury of tender shoots in winter season.
'Budding' refers to the particular form of grafting best suited for the propagation of citrus trees. In a bud graft, a bud, along with some bark (budwood), is removed from the variety of tree (scion) the grower is trying to propagate. The bud is then inserted beneath the bark of a host tree (rootstock).
Budding is generally done either in spring or in September. In this method of propagation, a bud from desired variety (scion) is transferred on the rootstock with an objective of utilising the vigorous root system of the rootstock and combining the best characters of both.

Budding and grafting are best done in the spring or fall when the bark is easily sep- arated from the wood. It should be timed to be early enough so that warm weather will help ensure a good bud union, yet late enough so that the bud will not begin to grow and callus will not grow over the bud itself.
Grafted trees create robust, hardy trees with disease resistance and long-term productivity. This makes them ideal for gardeners seeking resilience and high performance. If you are planning to grow your citrus trees in the ground, we recommend that you plant grafted citrus trees as opposed to rooted cuttings.
