THE NEW BUD BEGINS TO GROW 



The bud soon puts forth leaves, and may make a growth of several feet in the first year, if it 

 was budded in early spring. If the operation was performed late in the summer or fall, 

 the bud ordinarily lies dormant until the next spring, when it begins to grow rapidly.
