If used in the open, however, should be used. The parts grow together uni- formly and quickly, making a solid and perfect union, as shown at D. So far as the union of the piarts is concerned, this is probably the ideal method of grafting. This meth- rfe od, which is nothing "Alt the side-graft of the English garden- ers with the most important addition of a longer tongue on the stock, is kudun liy various names, but it is oftenest called veneer- gr,ifting in this country. \'eneer-gr,ifting is employed mostly from November to Alirch, upon potted plants. .Stocks which are grown out- doors are potted in the early fall and carried o\'er in a cool house or ]Mt.
