I have noticed the same thing.
I think some graft compatibility issue is at work.
This particular mating is not meant to work.
I notice that even if you wait and let them alone, they never seem to grow particularly well.
In taking them apart and studying the graft area it looks like they do not callus very well.
It amy be like different blood types in humans.
More study is needed in this area to be more definitive.

This year has been a good lesson in patience with grafts.....I have about 15 apple grafts (12 varieties on 3 different rootstocks)I had given up on several weeks ago, just start to show color after the last rain. I have kept them all covered with white paper and well watered. So my lesson this year is don't give up till the scion truly shrivels up. Makes me wonder if there is something magic about rain or is it just timing? Del
