Tanis, is the 118 fire blight proof?

Whoever gets your rootstock can also plant this year, graft next, etc. No 
need to graft right away. Scion growth is dependant upon amount of root 
pushing it plus amount of season left for growing.

On the larger caliper stocks that I sometimes get (too large for whip 
grafting), I will put it in the ground and wait for the bark to slip, then do 
a bark graft. Works a treat!
