Chris, interesting parrallel results, for me all whip and tongue:

yep/nope
apples 32 / 1
pears 5 / 20
apricots 2 / 25+
plum 3 / 25+

What is it about apples? they make an amature look competent!
The others that are so much more difficult, is it callusing? scion dormancy
survival? temperature critical? Mn. Del
