"Before" means before I buried grafts. I was not doing a research
study. I was just trying to get trees to live through winters. I
bought trees from several sources. Local and mail-order. It is
possible burying graft is just protecting graft from winter cold. This fall I will probe around buried trunks to see if roots have
grown from Evans trunks. I'll look up Evans own-root sources and let
you know.

Hello Ernest;
I am interested in your Evans story. The trees that you buried the
graft union were better 'than before'. What does 'than before' mean?
Did you plant some at the same time from the same batch without
burying the graft? Same plant source? This is a decent finding on
your part. Please elaborate. Also, who is the 'own root' Evans cherry
tree source?
