The invention discloses a zelkova serrata grafting reproduction method, which comprises the following steps that high-quality lignified or semi-lignified branches on clonal mother trees are adopted as scions, the length of the scions is 8 to 10cm, the scions have two to three buds, and then, the scions are cut into wedge-shaped scions with the length being 3.5 to 4.5cm; proper stocks are adopted, an opening is cut in the center, the cut scions are fast inserted into the opening, after the scion insertion, the contact parts of the scions and the stocks are wrapped out by yellow mud, the buds are avoided during the wrapping, and then, the cut opening parts are sealed through film coating or wax coating. According to the zelkova serrata grafting reproduction method, the zelkova serrata branches or the buds with the good property expression are grafted onto the stocks so that the stocks are heeled and survived into an independent plant. The root systems of the grafting seedlings have the hereditary properties of the stock plants, the trunks and the crowns are the continuation of the growth and the development of the scion stock plants, the characteristics of the stock plants can be maintained, and the hereditary is stable. Through the grafting reproduction technology, good characteristics of good seeds are maintained, the survival rate is improved, and the defects of great scion consumption and long seedling forming time of the grafting reproduction are overcome.
