Fruit tree cuttings can either be planted in the ground for the chance of a completely new tree, or grafted onto an existing fruit tree. The chances for a cutting taking root and growing up is 40%, whereas a graft working out only has a 5% chance.<br>

The temperature under which a fruit tree will die can vary randomly within a certain amount, however one end of this temperature zone will be favoured. In the below list, the most likely temperature is shown first, with the full possibilities in brackets behind. Similarly, a fruit tree will go into dormancy under specific temperatures, which means even if it does not die, it will not be producing any fruit.<br>

A fruit tree cutting can also be grafted to another, already grown fruit tree. However, this has some requirements and only a 5% chance of success. <br>
A fruit tree cutting can also be grafted to another, already grown fruit tree. However, this has some requirements and only a 50 % chance of success. <br>
Firstly and obviously, grafting only works on another fruit tree. It also requires the host tree to have an "open cut", meaning the end of a branch block as shown below. The new cutting can then be {{SneakClick|added}} to the branch and will grow out up to 6 additional leaf blocks of the added cuttings type. When planning your orchard keep in mind that through grafting, the maximum range of a fruit tree can therefore extend - from the normal two blocks out to a maximum of three blocks out from the stem.<br>

A grafted cutting, even if successful, does not completely integrate with the host tree. It will keep the temperature requirements of its own type, and every leaf block calculates these independently. This results in an important point to keep in mind when preparing and caring for a graft:<br>
