Readily available, beautiful and fragrant, apple trees offer four-season interest along with crisp, juicy fruit
Full StoryMerry Christmas to all fellow gardeners.
When the weather gets cold and all of my 2015 garden plans are almost done I usually start looking for something to do differently in the yard and espaliering some apple trees has peaked my interests.
Over the last couple of weeks I have been researching the different rootstocks that are available and have come to the conclusion that it is very confusing, so with that being said I will ask a few of my Q's.
For doing espalier in michigan is there a specific rootstock that I should use? I would like the trees to get about 6 to 8 ft. tall when it is fully grown.
I know that there are a lot of variables when choosing rootstocks so maybe it would be easier to ask which ones to avoid. Or would it be better for me to just buy some trees already grafted to a particular rootstock?
I surely have many more Q's but will wait for now.
