This is the second one ,I think its either a bad spot to plant them(cause the first one died) or I'm doing something very wrong.They both stated out great,winter came,then spring,both leafed out and bloomed,then leaves got curly and red.Took the first one back to the nursery,now the second one ended up the same way(no warrenty on it),it also looks like boarer's are in it,all the bottom branches are dead ,all the top leaves fell off,and new perfect leaves showed up.
The trunk looks terrible,its almost flat in one spot,and sap is poring out from more than one spot...I know she's a gonner.There is a peach seedling(5 ft tall) that I got from Aimee which is about 20 feet from it that looks great and has none of those symptoms.

My questions are,is it possible to root cuttings from the Reliance?

can cuttings be taken to graft either to the seedling from Aimee or...and I don't know if this is possible...I have a tree in the pasture that use to be a green gage plum.It got run over too many times and I think its only the rootstsock growing(has thorns in some spots)can it get grafted to the rootstock?
