g squared 23 Well-Known Member Jul 10, 2019 #7 Order some scion this winter and use it as rootstock. Better and cheaper than starting from scratch. If the graft doesn’t take, oh well, you can always kill the tree. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

THE LLC Well-Known Member Jul 11, 2019 #8 I've done that with lots of luck. I've grafted Kieffer and two types of old timey pears with great luck. Make good rootstock.
