I would assume that any divisions would be true to type.

My interest is that seedling prunus are a great fit for permaculture
designs for low input, semi-wild plantings.  Also since I am primarily
using fruit for wine, Im less interested in sweetness and more
interested in a wide base of cherry character that couple be expressed
in wine.

I make wine from seedling Siberian C peaches and after about a year
and half of cellar time, it is really a very nice wine.
