Hey Speedy, can't help with Cherokee, but next year could swap some Shoshonii (B) if you get the Cherokee going? I only have the one, and even though it's self-pollinating, might be good to have an A on it? (Likewise for you?) What rootstock were you grafting it onto? Cheers, Nathan PS I'm not sure where replies etc come to on here, have not commented before. Maybe CC nathan_poole at haawtmail (replace with hot) dot com if you're interested?

No idea why it died; most likely a lack of summer water and competition from established trees
