Planting and Craffing^ i j 
Apple upon another, and both Pears and Quinces they graffe on 
Hathorne and Grab Hock. Another kind of fruit called in French 
Saulfey^ they ufe to graffe on the Willow ftock^ the manner there- 
of is hard to do, which I have not feen, therefore I will let paffe at 
thisprefent. 
T^ht graffing of great Cheries. 
'^Hey graffe the great Chery, called in French Heattlmhrs^ upon 
the Crab ftock, and another long Chery called Guyniers upon 
the wild or louer Chery tree ; and like wife one Chery upon ano- 
ther* 
Tlo graffe Medlers. 
T He Mifplc or Medler, they may be graffed on other Medlers, 
or on the white Thorne ; the Quince is graffed on the white or 
black Thorne, and they do profper well j I have graffed (faith he) 
the Qiincc upon a wild Pear ftock, and it hath taken and borne 
fruit, well and good, but they will not long cndiire. I believe 
(faith he) it was becaufe the graffe was not able enough to draw 
the fapfrom the Pear ftock. Some graffe the Medler on the Quince, 
to be great. And it is to be noted, although the ftock and the graffe 
be of contrary natures : yet notwithftawding, neither the Graffe nor 
Sciitchion, ftiall take any part of the nature of the wild ftock fo 
graffed, though it be Pear, Apple, or Quince, which is contrary 
againft many which have written, that ifye graffe the Medler up- 
on the Quince tree, they (hall be without ftones, which is an a- 
bufe and mockery. For I have (faith he) proved the contrary my, 
felfe. 
Of divers k^nds of graffes, 
I T is very true, that one may feta tree, which fliall bear divers 
forts of fruit at once, if he be graffed with divers kinds of graffes, 
as the black, white, and greene Chery together, and alfo Apples 
of other trees, as Apples and Pears together, and in the Scutchion, 
(ye may graffe) likewifeof divers kinds alfo, as on Pears, Apri- 
cots, and Plums together, and of others alfo. 
OfthegrajjingtheFig. 
Y e may graffe the Fig tree upon the Peach tree or Apricot, but 
leave a branch on the ftock, & there muft be according for the 
ipace of years, for the one fhall change fooner then the other. All 
trees abovefaid, do take very well being graffed one with the other. 
And I have not known, or found of any others* howbeit (faith he)
