In zone 3 I am still grafting dormant scions of prunus sp. Some seem to need 
heat to callus,  but we are 35F to 55 this week, so I graft a few every week 
hoping to hit it right.
I do several kinds - w/t, chip, and a hybrid chip-w/t that I like.
One year I grafted dormant apple wood in mid July - and it grew and turned 
dormant in time to make it through the winter.
Del, just came in with a armload of fire wood for the wood stove, good 
grief!
