    I have these and 80 more hardy varieties on M. Prunifolia, M. Renetka, M. Antonovka,
B118, & B9.
    I have seen  no incompatibility issues in any of these 5 to 10 year old trees, if
that is what you are asking.

     In Zone 3a I find frost in the ground till late April, So I'd guess early April for
shipping to 3b,  don't know how you'll keep them dormant though. 
   2nd hard frost of the season tonight.  Del
