Now, open the "t" cut, insert the
woodless bark -bud side out !- and slide down until the bud can make contact
with the underlying wood of the stock plant. Push the flaps
of your "T" cut back over the scion.
Tie
gently with a rubberband,
overlapping it a bit as you wrap. Keep the union safe from overhead watering for a week or two.
After
the bud begins to grow, remove the wrap, and any part of the stock plant
you don't intend to keep.
