I bought a fruit cocktail tree few years back and it has 5 varieties of fruit grafted to one tree. I kind of want to know which one is which. How can I go about identifying each?
One is done because they put a "Bruce plum" onto a peach tree so that one I know which it is. But it also has "Ruston red, dixland,belle of GA, and redskin" peach varieties. Which are the ones I'd like to identify for pruning reasons. Don't wanna loose a variety because of a wrong cut. Also I would like to take some more cuttings to create more
trees. I have already got 2 Bruce plums tissue cultured then potted and now planted in the ground for a year so would like to try some of the other peach varieties off this grafted tree.
Right now I have baby fruit and they do look different so I think this might be the best time to start figuring this out... any advise is welcome and pictures are a big help as well so let me know if I need to post some...
Thanks,
Mike
