Is there a place I don’t get killed for m111 apple rootstock? After shipping it comes out to nearly 7/tree. Too much for me! I’d be interested in pear as well. Let me know!
Maybe not this time of year.... Cummins Nursery would be the 1st place I would look if just trying to buy a small number.Is there a place I don’t get killed for m111 apple rootstock? After shipping it comes out to nearly 7/tree. Too much for me! I’d be interested in pear as well. Let me know!
You can do a couple different things:I orders some bare root crab apple trees that arrived today. I was a bit surprised to see them this early. I have never planted bare root apple trees before. Do I wasn’t to plant them this weekend already? Seems a bit cold yet for Wisconsin. Or do I wait? Will they be OK staying in the box for a few weeks?

I just watched a skillcult video. He raises lots of seedlings and he feels that those varieties that get burr knots might be more likely to root from sprouts covered with dirt or maybe even from cuttings.I am going to plant a M111 and leave it alone. tt's 3/4's northern spy 1/4 malling 2. It'll be a decent october tree all by itself I believe. Doesn't hurt to plant a few extras.
Fruit of the M-111 Tree (fruit-trees forum at permies)
Has anyone had the fruits of an M-111 apple tree? Not a palatable apple grafted onto M-111 rootstock, but just the plain old fruits of that M-111 itself?.permies.com
I ordered some M111 from Willamette Nursery about a week ago.Where are some good places to buy (apple) rootstock right now for some bench grafting?
Maybe I am too paranoid about cedar apple rust, but this experiment would be better for someone who does not have that problem. One is being planted, and I'll see what happens. Likely topwork the tree afterwards, if cedar apple rust is pretty badI just watched a skillcult video.

I just did search and could find nothing about the fruit from M111.
I'd plant them as soon as possible. I've planted a large number of bare root apple trees over the years and I've never had any issues with planting them too early. One year the ground was still frozen and I had to use a pick axe to dig a few of the holes to get them in the ground. The trees did great.I orders some bare root crab apple trees that arrived today.
