Is this a seedling or a sucker?

I looking a peach blossoms last week and I noticed this. Sorry for the bad pic but I refuse to get a smarter phone when my blackberry gets the job done. I planted some type of peach maybe 5-10 years ago and I thought it died. It was some type of yellow skinned small peach(no red at all). It ripen about the end of June. I piled up a bunch of farm implements over here and it got overgrown. It bloomed and now has fruit on it. The original tree also bloomed but not as vigorously. The original, I think, is the curvy one. I thought it was interesting. Any thoughts?

I'd say it's probably a sucker off the original tree. Prunus species seem to like to sucker out.

If its below the graft, its rootstock.
Oh, I from the looks of the picture, I dont think your crackberry is getting it done, just sayin'....

Thanks. It'll be interesting to see how the fruit is. At least, if not good, then I have rootstock to graft to.
