Hi Folks
Thanks for the replies to my question.
Oops! I am located in SE Va. The peach rootstock would need to be resistant 
to borers, nematodes, sheep, llamas, and hostile husbands who think that 
grafting is a DISEASE.
We have a small farm on top what is known as a "clay knob". Actually , that 
means that all the good land has washed down the hill into the pasture, and 
we are left with tight clay around the house.
I want to graft a very dwarf peach onto standard rootstock, and try to cover 
it from the inevitable late frost that we always have.

I don't know of any fruit tastings, or group meetings in my area to buy small 
quantities of dwarfing cherry rootstocks.

10 is not too many; I guess if I have to bite down and pay $5 apiece, so be 
it...
