Cleft Grafting (1910)

Cleft Grafting is a book written by Charles Orie Couts and published in 1910. The book provides a comprehensive guide to the technique of cleft grafting, which is a method of propagating fruit trees and other plants by joining a scion (a shoot or bud) from one plant onto the rootstock of another. The book covers the history and theory of cleft grafting, as well as practical advice on selecting scions and rootstocks, preparing them for grafting, and caring for the grafted plants. The text is accompanied by numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the process. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in horticulture and plant propagation, particularly those interested in fruit tree cultivation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
