Samuel Johnson's Dictionary
Whipgraftingnoun
In gardening. Whipgrafting is done two ways: first, cut off the head of the stock, and smooth it; then cut the graft from a knot or bud on one side sloping, about an inch and a half long, with a shoulder, but not deep, that it may rest on the top of the stock: the graft must be cut from the shouldering smooth and even, sloping by degrees, that the lower end be thin: place the shoulder on the head of the stock, and mark the length of the cut part of the graft, and with your knife cut away so much of the stock as the graft did cover, but not any of the wood of the stock: place both together, that the cut part of both may join, and the sap unite the one to the other; and bind them close together, and defend them from the rain with tempered clay or wax, as before. The other way of whipgrafting is, where the grafts and the stocks are of an equal size: the stock must be cut sloping upwards from one side to the other, and the graft after the same manner from the shoulder downwards, that the graft may exactly join with the stock in every part, and so bind, and clay or wax them as before. John Mortimer Husbandry.
