In this paper, we study five methods to construct -trees by using vertex amalgamations of smaller -trees. We also study graceful and -labelings for graphs that are the union of copies of an -graph of order and size with a graph of size . If , we prove that the disjoint union of and copies of is graceful when is graceful, and that this union is an -graph when is any linear forest of size . If , we prove that this union is an -graph when is the path .
