This photo shows the "Dogleg" when a plant is Budded. They are Apricots on Plum Rootstock notice the different colour of the stock and scion. Some grafts will have the same "dogleg" but some where below the bend you will be able to see the old scars from the graft. After a few years as the tree increases in diameter the "Dogleg" will be over grown and the tree will appear straight.
