Abstract
Most varieties of olives can be propagated readily by either leafy softwood cuttings or by hardwood cuttings. However, the Sevillano–one of the leading commercial olive varieties in California–has been difficult to propagate by cuttings; so nurserymen have resorted to grafting on seedlings as a means of propagation.
