Plum planting

THe Toka plum I purchased finally got a good haircut. My neighbor gladly helped me (in exchange for me digging over his garden bed ) as the tree was grown quite odd.

The thing is, he suggested that I plant the tree a foot DEEPER then it is in the pot. Yes, it is grafted, roughly 5 cm above the soil line. Toka plum are said to be hardy to zone 4, and even zone 3, so I dont see any reason why I should plant it so deep.

I could also see his reasoning, because his trees arent grafted. Im pretty sure if I planted it that deep, ill be surrounded by shoots from above the graft right?
