    Whatever you do don't set foot on his land , or people on here will cry you were trespassing , even if you are just trying to get a better view of the damage HE CAUSED. YOU are only allowed to walk or drive up up his driveway and some people on here will still get mad and offended at that ...

    Southern Indiana crabapple trees help

    If those trees are that good , grafting is the Way to go. I'm not sure about "mature trees" but places Like Blue Hill, Whitetail Crabs , Mid West Deer Trees sell some of the best Wildlife trees that are 3 foot to close to 6 foot depending on the growing season or if you buy 2 year old trees...

    Southern Indiana crabapple trees help

    I'm not sure what you are asking, are you just trying to buy more trees that are the same ? If so a picture of the tree and fruit would help. IF you really want identical tees you need to buy rootstock , and graft scion ( a young shoot or twig) from your 1942 trees onto the rootstock.

    Chance of freeze damage - pear vs persimmon

    That's probably the smart way to water. My Tree plot is on the land I live on , I'm cheap and just fill up old milk jugs, and carry 25 of them over in a Kawasaki mule. Granted I only planted 5 new trees in the plot this year.....and give them at least 5 gallons each once a week. In the...

    Chance of freeze damage - pear vs persimmon

    I planted 2 Rut Rage's last year, fast growers....they both had blossoms this year, and one tree has a couple pears growing already at about 5 foot !. The other tree had blossoms all the way at the top. I'll probably have to get a ladder to see if it has pears as well.

    Granny Smith Apple trees in full blossom

    Even though they say Granny Smith is self-fertile , and does not need a pollination partner, I'd plant another apple tree 25 feet away. As you can see in the photo I have 2 Granny Smiths and it works for me. I probably followed the trees tag for planting advice/ if I could do it over I'd...

    Granny Smith Apple trees in full blossom

    The first fruit trees I planted in the yard after moving to VA 21 years ago, probably purchased at Lowes. I'm aware they could use a good pruning. Regardless , from June to October the deer come up every evening before dark looking for the apples that trickle off. Their still some hanging...

    grafting crabapples

    The easiest way to learn would be to watch some crabapple or apple YouTube grafting videos. Then out of all the videos choose the method that looks the easiest to you and that you'd have the most confidence in duplicating.

    Sounds good, but the trees your grafting from , originally had to come from somewhere.

    First you're complaining about only getting 2 days notice. Then theirs a snowstorm that just came through. Then you want to plant 8 trees in SW WI , "but I won't be there for at least two weeks" . So what's the deal ? is the snowstorm so bad that you can't get their for 2 weeks ? (doubtful)...

    Your post is pretty hilarious and worthless . I'm not ordering trees to graft, so it doesn't matter what the "same variety on the same rootstock would do ". My comparison is based solely on how the trees that each nursery shipped me grow on my land , as is . I HAVE ordered and planted trees...
