The Teroldego is a sibling of a variety that is the parent of a variety, so it's up for grabs what you will get there, too. On a related note: when I bought my property it came with a regional wild peach tree that was about 20 years old. Fifteen plus years later, the tree gave up the ghost, but not before producing one of its best flowering and crops ever. I saved a few peach pits, followed directions and, voila! I managed to develop one new replicated peach tree, which is now three years old and has given me some peach pits to try again. It is such a blast to be able to be part of a creation like that.
