Hi Pete,
What Tom suggested is a good possibility to save the variety of tree
that your grandfather had. Also I have grafted peach onto the Pumiselect
rootstock and the Krymsk 1 successfully. Both are somewhat dwarfing.
Pumiselect will give you a tree about 60% of standard and Krymsk 1 will give you
a tree about 50% of standard depending on your growing conditions. I see
that Raintree Nursery has Krymsk 1 available. Off hand I don't know where
you can get small quantities of Pumiselect. Pumiselect is supposedly only
good for peach and possibly apricot whereas Krymsk 1 is suppose to be good for
peach, plum, apricot, and nectarine.
