True.  You don't want to force them into growth because the new growth would not harden off enough for the winter.  I have had a few plum start to grow in the late summer and survive to the spring but it is not recommended.

To us novices, a picture IS worth a thousand words.
And I assume these buds are dormant because they are waiting for next spring .(True?)

I am attaching a picture.  Left hand side is the budstick.  Right hand side is an example of putting the bud in place.  The lowest cut is just the T in the sample host, the middle is the bud put in place, and the top is after the tie with the budding strip.  You would normally only put one per host limb but I have put three just to show the process
