Grafted Apple Trees
Excel file list -link
Notes for excel file:
Top lines: Column description with colors are tag colors and are for different rootstock- used for tracking in the field, and what your tree is sent with. Smallest to largest rootstock types, repeated at column ‘AA’ with newer (to me) rootstock G11 to P18 and on to double grafts beginning with 106/M27
Column ‘F'(yellow): Refers to estimated collectable scionwood quantity… where NA is not available yet. Numbers under 5 should always have backup of alternates and are limited to 1 per person/order – I do my best to spread genetic material around. This column count changes weekly (date at top) during winter/spring, so keep tabs. And if you want to start a commercial-size planting please inquiry during summer!
Column ‘K'(beige): Available trees! starred trees are Not For Sale. And-if I only have 2 trees in column ‘K’ they are not for sale.
Varieties are linked(Work in progress) to Pomiferous or Orange Pippin

Bench Grafts: most preferred, lowest cost to produce and ship, with newly made ‘whip & tongue’ grafts, sold bareroot and shipped January to June, $15 for one or two trees, 3 to 9 trees are $14 each; 10 to 49=$13ea.;50 to 99=$12 each; 100 to 499= $11 each; 500+=$10 each.

Hello, we found you on Etsy and checked out your website. We are looking for McIntosh apple trees. I believe we need two to pollinate each other but please correct me if I am wrong. Do you have McIntosh? We live in central Oregon. Thank you for any information you can provide.
LikeLike
Yes, I can provide McIntosh for you. You need 2 different varieties
LikeLike
Thank you for your response. We currently have one McIntosh and one Granny Smith. We would like to have another McIntosh. Would this be sufficient for them to pollinate? What would the cost be? Is this a good time to plant a tree or would we be better off waiting until next spring? Thank you for any information you can provide.
