The use of scions taken from the branch of graftages, 8 storage methods during winter season were examined in a underground cellar and in soil by checking the rate of normal scions to total winter buds and the rate of alive graftages to total graftages. The results were as follows: 1. The highest rate of normal scions dropped in 80∼ 120cm of branch from soil surface. 2. The highest rate of normal scions showed in the cellar storage method. Buring 2/3 of branch in soil increased the normal scoin rate than buring 1/2 of branch. However, wrapping branch with vinyl film, moreover covering with straw sack decreased the normal scion rate. 3. The alive rate to total graftage showed the highest by about 90% under the cellar storage. Burying 2/3 of branch in soil and vinyl wrapping, more over covering straw sack decreased the alive rate by 81.5∼67.5%. 4. Correlation between the alive rate and the water content in cortex was negatively significant at 5% (r=-0.71*). The optium water content for graftage may drop in 47~53%. 5. The alive rate of graftages was higher in scoins taken from graftages than that taken from farmer fields.
