A couple of decades ago I ordered Siberian "C"  peach trees and also a 
Montclair peach.   The Montclair has the habit of being a double trunk tree 
and does not usually live long (mine did not either).   Apricots can be 
grafted to peach, but not peach to apricot rootstocks.  These were ordered 
from Bear Creek Nursery in Washington, which is no longer in business. 
Siberian peaches did very well in zone 4a.   We were able to order Siberian 
C from the conservation nursery in North Dakota up until this spring.
