People on RIU used to talk about that a lot, mostly interspecies. I plan to do that to an American wild plum I have. I also need to go into the woods and find another one. This one had a mate that died and it can't self pollinate so it stopped bearing fruit. I treasure it for its eccentric shape and it's gloriously fragrant in spring. I need to install supports for winter. Ice storms are more responsible than anything for its shape.20241202_124815.jpg

I had a "Fruit salad tree" for awhile, planted it in the wrong spot and it got too big. It had two kinds of peaches, a plumb, and an apricot graft.

I have a cherry tree sapling that supposedly has 4 different kinds of cherries grafted to the same tree.
