[Meaning ones that are] grafted. Aristophanes[1] says that in-growing pear-trees are also such things.

*)embeblhme/na: e)gkekentrisme/na. *)aristofa/nhs de\ kai\ e)mbola/das a)pi/ous ta\s toiau/tas le/gei.
Notes:
The headword is neuter plural of the perfect middle/passive participle of e)mba/llw (cf. epsilon 934, epsilon 935, epsilon 936). For this sense of it see LSJ s.v., I.8.
[1] A mistake -- also in the epitome of the Suda's source here, Harpokration s.v. -- for Aristotle (fr. 274 Rose). The headword itself appears in Demosthenes 53.15, on which Harpok. was commenting.
