Buddy Tape Grafting Tape
Best high performance stretch tape for professional and hobbyist plant grafting.
This specialized tape simplifies plant propagation by combining the properties of wax, rubber, and nylon into a single, breathable, and self-adhesive strip. It stretches to create a secure, moisture-retaining seal that naturally biodegrades in sunlight, eliminating the need for manual removal or messy wax applications.
