, I got 1lb of turmeric rhizomes and 2 starts yesterday. Planted the starts and will wet place the rhizomes before long. I have hope of leaving it inground as I see from Wayland Smalley deep mulch gardening. Every year is a new adventure .

Philosophy it amazes me how we only get one try a year. Like if you are really luck you will grow tomatoes about 60 times in your life.

Or a 1 time in a life try. 6 cabbage pulled from the greenhouse cull for small size.
Will they prosper and make or get yanked again ?

Plum should be able to graft to peach and vice versa

Also plums usually do ok on their own roots. I might just stick them in a sand bed and see what they do

I've never looked into it but is that true for all stone fruit?

Mostly all prunus roots stocks are are comparable but species do have a preference, plums are usually on st Julian, which is a decent green mirrabelle plum on it's own, peaches tend to be on lovell, apricots tend to be on a bush cherry rootstock. But you can graft plums, peaches, apricots and almonds all on one tree. Cherrys are grafted on cherry rootatock, usually mazzard
