GRAFTING OF THE VINE ABOVE GROUND. 



21 



Fig. 33 shows one of these one-eyed grafts ; the success 

 with this method of multiplying Berlandieris is excellent ; 

 shortly after planting 

 out, the Berlandieri 

 throws roots from the 

 joint of the graft, and, 

 after having been 

 nourished by the frag- 

 ment of Riparia or 

 Rupestris, soon feeds 

 with its own roots. 

 This application of the Clarac graft will render great 

 services in the Charentes and Champagne, for it will 

 enable vine-growers to obtain Berlandieri cuttings at 

 moderate prices.
