Well, I expect I am mistaken about them coming in true from seed. I am
a bit of a novice in this field. Still, it seemed odd to graft a hardy tree onto a not-so-hardy root stock. The idea that this is to prevent suckering seems reasonable. I'm near St. Paul, Minnesota.

See <http://www.ibiblio.org/ecolandtech/NAFEX/message-archives/old/msg03690.html> What is the source of your information, and where are you? Growing sour cherries on their own roots is apparently not that easy, and tissue culture is the favoured way. Evidently some nurseries prefer to graft, perhaps to have the whole process under their own control.
