re: Is that where they graft branches from different types of fruits onto one tree? I did it as a science experiment in 8th grade.

Yep, you can get a citrus tree with 4 or 5 different fruit. Pretty cool... but I may just end up buying one.

I bet it would look a little funny but it certainly would be convenient.

I grafted a branch of a pear tree to an apple tree and a branch from a white pine to a blue spruce. I won the school science award for my efforts..........it was during my geek phase. <g>

Yep, the call those fruit cocktail trees. Unfortunately, they don't live as long because the tree is always putting out.
