I traded for those trees about 28 years ago. They are a grafted tree, not sure the Rootstock. It suckers frequently but I have never propagated the suckers to see what it was. These are pruned sometimes twice a year to get them to open up like they are on the inside but put on a full canopy. The average age lifespan is 25 years but thru pruning you can double their life. I use a commercial chemical that when mixed and poured over the tree roots it is sucked up into the tree killing anything that feeds on it be it Leaf, Bark, or Root insect. In fact getting ahead of my planned posts I use it on all trees here except Figs.
