Plum scions are commonly grafted onto several compatible rootstocks, including Myrobalan (Prunus cerasifera), Mariana (Prunus cerasifera x Prunus domestica), and St. Julien (Prunus insititia). Other options include the Pixy and Gisela series, particularly for certain plum varieties. The choice of rootstock affects the tree's growth habit, hardiness, and disease resistance, so it's essential to select one that matches the desired characteristics for the specific plum variety being grafted.
Unfortunately not. Interspecies grafting is, in rare cases possible, but rarely recommended. In this case, though there is some literature stating that Quince is a lateral member of the prunus species, this categorization is doubtful at best. Even so, there is considerable difficulty in grafting "within" the species much less within lateral familial associations even if this were accurate. Quince, (Cydonia Elogea), has never been shown to be a viable rootstock for any of the commercially grown plum species, (Prunus Domestica, Prunus Institia, or Prunus Salicina).
No, peach trees cannot be cross-pollinated with plum trees. They belong to different species (Prunus persica for peach and Prunus domestica for plum) and are not compatible for cross-pollination. To produce fruit, both peach and plum trees require pollen from the same species or a compatible cultivar within the same species.
Not long. It depends on type of plum tree, how much water it gets, type of soil, sunlight, pruning, those sort of things.A purple plum, Prunus cerasifera, can live for as little as 20 years and it will have got to full size long before that.
Common examples of rootstocks include M-111 and M-7 for apple trees, St. Julien for plum trees, and Colt for cherry trees. Each rootstock has specific characteristics that can influence the size, vigor, and disease resistance of the resulting tree.
