CUTTING THE BARK TO 

 RECEIVE A BUD 



A T-shaped incision is made in the 

 bark of the stock on which the bud is 

 to be grafted, the edges about the 

 vertical slit are turned back, exposing 

 the cambium layer. The slice of bark 

 with the bud is then slid into this pocket 

 and the bark of the stock is folded 

 about it and secured with a string.
