Your tricking me into more trees. I see frostbite is a parent to many varieties in the minesotta program.
Any info on that swamp crab? How well it holds into the season ,early frost tolerance, any signs of disease. We got alot of beavers up at camp, but can find some small brook edges that it might be left alone.
Debating a 2nd tree order for some anty, B118, and m111 rootstocks. What I read about the siberian crab is all over the place. Tree size between standard to semidwarf and some have compatibility issues and some say no.

I have not looked at Swamp Crab for a bit. Per memory, it is an early dropper and the crabs are small. I see it’s main value as a rootstock for damp to occasionally wet areas.

Buckman Crab is holding all fruit and should be a winter food source.
Rifle season opens tomorrow and within the next two weeks I should be able to look at what I call my Outback Orchard and some other trees. I have stayed out of those areas for about two plus months.
I hope the bears haven’t torn things up too much.

Good luck tomorrow. Saw three bears about 500 yards away fooling around in a tree n the farside of the conrfield I was hunting. Looked a bit big to be kid bears too, only have 8x binoculars. Thought someone was getting in a treestand before I got my binoculars. A bit far away for the crossbow.
