M JX903 Parafilm Grafting Tape, 90' Roll Clear, 1/2" Tape

I bought this for grafting apple and crabapple trees and it worked as well as can be expected. It was a very windy summer and this tape held all grafts together with no failures. Pros - Flexible and stretchy enough to do the job. - Held all grafts in place with winds up to 100 kph. - Didn't require extra string or sealants to hold the grafts. Cons - Seems like it could be a little tackier, but still held well once pressed together. - Price is very steep for what it is.

This worked really well. It is a bit stiffer than buddy tape, but also cracks off sooner as the graft grows and expands, which I think is a good thing

We have a small orchard, only 25 trees, and there are two kinds of apples, out of the 6 variety’s we have, that we really love. Enter the fun science of grafting. I’ve found that successful grafting requires some good, proven techniques and materials. This paraffin wrap works. It just does. It holds tight on the bud graft, it is waterproof, it stretches and conforms to irregularities on the branch your grating to and sticks to itself when you tear or cut it. Can’t go wrong. Give this a try and your odds of success will increase. Happy grafting!

It works well for propagation

Too expensive for so little tape, but this is in fact real Parafilm, not garbage saran wrap which is useless for grafting. This tape stretches and molds itself to conform to surfaces and forms a tight seal, and doesn't peel off of itself where it is wrapped over itself.
