Listed below are the trees available this year, and despite the dry summer, we did all the extra work required to keep everything watered and had a very successful year in our Nursery.
Finally, I have got my APPLE TREE AVAILABILITY ready to publish..
Here are my Offerings as of November 22, 2022.
1) Bud 118 Rootstock will produce a Drought Resistant tree maturing to about 16 feet. (220 varieties)
2) INTERSTEM DWARF: Bud 118 with a Bud 9 INTERSTEM on top. This Produces a Dwarf Tree that is quite Drought Resistant tree, because it has a large root. (86 varieties) NOTE: It takes 2 grafts per tree to create an INTERSTEM Dwarf tree, so I add $10 to the cost for an Interstem.
3) Collonade Trees, (Apples on a Stick) on a Bud 118 rootstock, which can be planted 3 feet apart, require NO PRUNING and can grow to 12 feet tall. They can also be grown in Pots. (10 varieties)
