Abstract: Approach grafting of short-satured variant (dwarf) of clove (Syzygium aromaticum) was successful on ordinary clove rootstock and the graft union was obtained in 6-8 months with 64% success and 100% field establishment. The resultant graft had the appearance of ordinary clove with increase in intermodal length of the scion shoot. But when ordinary clove was approach grafted to dwarf clove rootstock the intermodal length of the scion was reduced. The study indicated that the rootstock had a definite influence on the scion, with regard to growth in clove.
