The spring following the top-grafting, all or a part of the branches left on the stock at grafting should be pruned off to encourage growth of the grafts. If the tree is large, and of a vigorous variety, it is wise to leave a part of these branches until the second spring. 393. Side=Grafting, is chiefly practiced with plants in leaf, under glass. The cion is joined at the side of the stock, which is usually not cut off, and is secured in place bj' wrap- ping tightly with bast* or raffia. Three slightly different methods are in use. a ^ A shaving of bark, sufficiently thick to reach into the cambium layer, is removed from the side of the stock by * .Bos/is the fibrous inner bark of the bass-wood or linden tree, (TYiia). It was formerly much used for tying gralts and buds, but has been largely supplanted by raffia, which comes from a palm of the genus Raphia. Rafiia may be purchased of dealers in nursery supplies.
