Can you still bud onto the rootstock?  (Does anyone know if this would 
compromised the existing but broken scion's ability to push a new shoot?)  
Then you haven't lost much.  Fameuse syn Snow is not a rare cultivar, so I'd 
say you haven't lost much, either in time or genetic material.  FYI, mine 
seems to be one of my LESS disease-resistant trees.

Bruce,

Fameuse, also known as Snow (snow white flesh, with red tendrils in flesh)
is a great desert apple.  It is claimed to be somewhat true from seed,
which is not common in apples.

Good eating from our tree.

Later,
Tom
