What is rootstock and scion?
Rootstock and scion refer to grafted plants and trees. The rootstock is the bottom half that goes into the ground; the half that will lay roots. The scion is part of a different plant that is going to be grafted onto the rootstock. Grafted plants generally take on certain characteristics of the rootstock plant, but will physically still be the scion plant. An example of this can be seen in walnut trees. The black walnut tree is a sturdier and disease-resistant, making it a great rootstock plant. The English walnut tree, however, produces tastier walnuts. Therefore, the English walnut tree is grafted on top of the black walnut tree creating a sturdier and more disease-resistant walnut tree.

What are the steps of budding?
Three type of budding are: T- or shield budding - The scion piece is reduced to a single bud. This is often used in fruit tree propagation. Patch budding - A small rectangle of bark bearing a scion bud is fitted into a corresponding opening in the stock. This is often used for trees like walnut and pecan. Chip budding - A bud, rather than a shoot, is attached to rootstock to make a new plant. This is used for fruit trees like apple, hawthorn, and pear, and ornamental, deciduous trees like magnolias.

What happens during budding?
Budding is a grafting technique in which a single bud from the desired scion is used rather than an entire scion containing many buds. Most budding is done just before or during the growing season. However some species may be budded during the winter while they are dormant. Budding requires the same precautions as grafting. Be sure that the scion and rootstock are compatible, that the scion has mature buds, and that the cambia of the scion and rootstock match. Be especially careful to prevent drying or contamination of grafting materials. With practice, the speed with which the process can be performed and the percentage of successful grafts those that "take" - should equal or surpass those of other grafting techniques used on the same species. Generally, deciduous fruit and shade trees are well suited to budding.
What is whip grafting and cleft grafting?
Whip grafting is a method of grafting where a scion (a small shoot or bud) from one plant is joined to the rootstock of another plant. It involves making a slanting cut on both the scion and rootstock, and then tying them together to promote healing and fusion. Cleft grafting, on the other hand, involves cutting a cleft or notch in the rootstock and inserting a scion into the opening. The scion is typically a dormant bud or shoot with a diagonal cut. This method is commonly used for fruit trees and helps promote the growth of new shoots and branches.

Why might a gardener want to graph a piece of vine from one grape species to the stem of another species?
You mean graft, not graph. Grafting is done to enable the resulting plant to benefit from the rootstock's good points and the scion's good points. Usually the new plant is better in important respects than either of the plants it was made from.
