A lot. I've done most of it myself, although I don't think the success rate will be high. Feijoa, asimina, fig, cherry, plum and apricot.

Different species are more and less likely to graft successfully. Cherry x plum/should be extremely easy, grafting prunus is cake.

Never tried figs or asimina.

I'd assume that figs would be easy (technique wise), being sappy and taking readily from cuttings. I'm not sure how often it would be useful, but I'm sure Tommoz is up to something interesting :)

Let us know how the asimina go. I have a few seedlings and wouldn't mind grafting over some of them with selected types, once I can get some scion.

As Sternus says, there isn't much to grafting prunus, but they do a lot better on established trees than rootstock in my experience.

I've heard feijoa are tricky though. Good luck :)

I wouldn't anticipitae fejoa being horrible to try and graft, guavas aren't that bad. Not as easy as prunus though.

Asmina would be like grafting cacrica papaya, which I've never seen done.

Wrong family. Asimina would be more like Cherimoya and other Annonaceae I would imagine... not that I've done them either, but I know they can be :)

Second time in two weeks I've confused babaco with something else. For some reason I had asimina and this mixed up.

Annona are pretty good to graft. I successfully grafted rollinia on to sugar apple a while back.
