Bud /. Bud making New Tree should be cut off in the winter so that a new growth will be put forth. Several buds are inserted in the new wood the following summer, and then fine kinds of pecans will be produced in two or three years (see Fig. 24). Satsuma orange buds are grafted into a hardy, worth- less orange, called the trifoliata, grown from seed.
