Help - Grafting

During a gale last night my mimosa took a hit and the central part (approx 1 metre) has broken off, is there any chance that it may graft together again.

Do you have a photo to give an idea of the damage?

Always worth a try I would think but if we get a hard winter, as seems likely to me, I wouldn't hold out a lot of hope😟

From the photos it looks as though it might be possible to try a wedge graft. There are videos and diagrams on the Internet that show the technique. Best of luck if you decide to give it a go.
