I agree with you there are a lot of members here willing to share their knowlege. I’ve learned a lot also from members like you who are willing to share.

About 25 days ago you were discussing flower buds on scions. This spring two of my Emmons variety plum grafts took and apparently had no growth buds but the fruit buds flourished!
So now as an experiment I will see what happens? If I get mature ripens fruit that will be the first of this variety. Whether there will be growth beyond these fruits remains a question?
Here is one with a single plum sticking up on top
Here is the other with four flower buds that also have four fruitlets behind the petals, again no foliage
These are on my wild goose tree which actually has numerous fruits setting now for the first year.

I’m very interested to see what happens also

I’ve been waiting to respond until I had more confidence that one of my Rochester peach grafts was successful. So the variety lives on in our orchard. Yeah!
I’ve read that stringy can be a trait common to a variety or specific to an individual tree. I’m sorry to hear your Rochesters were. It was not a problem with ours. No negative comments from friends or customers that way.
Thanks for your concern.
