Yay, they were about to be done! Carl guessed that that was good news, though he did not want this lesson to end. It was really fun! He wanted to graft more trees. But first, he had to finish the work he had begun on his honey locust and mahogany.

He listened to Professor Myers's instructions and took a roll of grafting tape when the bucket reached his desk. These steps seemed simple enough, perhaps even easier than the previous ones. He just had to master the new spell and make sure the tape did not fall off the cut. Stacking his trees together with the flaps fitting well, he cut out a long piece of tape and wrapped it around the cut multiple times. Yep, it was quite firm.

"June ... go ... Arborem." Carl muttered to himself, setting down his grafting tape. "Jungo Arborem, Jungo Arborem, Jungo Arborem." He continued while unsticking small bits of tape from his fingers (how did they get there, anyway?). When he was done, he picked up his wand and pointed it at the tree. Focus, now ... "Jungo Arborem!" He said clearly with a flick of his wrist. Aaand yes! He had a grafted tree!
