The experiment was laid out with completely randomized design having four treatments and five replications. Observations on graft success, survivability, growth parameters ie., number of sprouts, sprout length and number of levers were recorded at monthly interval. Graft success percentage and percent survivability of the grafts was maximum (72.00 and 68.00 %, respectively) in surinam cherry as scion and also number of sprouts, sprout length and number of leaves were maximum at 30, 60 and 90 days after grafting, compared to other treatments.
