Apples Grafted Onto Saskatoon
A group of apple grafts made in spring of 2022 onto wild Saskatoon trees near the nursery. We had some unexpected pruning by a curious rabbit in 2024, but after adding wildlife protection these bounced back and fruited in 2025 with a crop of September Ruby apples. We've been experimenting with apple, pear and plum graft compatibility onto our wild native fruit trees, with the benefit that they're perfectly adapted to our cold climate and sandy soil. These unconventional rootstocks are a fun grafting experiment with surprisingly good results. We have a few blog articles below about our ongoing field trials.

Root Stocks
We grow our own seedling apple root stocks from locally collected apple seeds. Our largest Malus baccata (Siberian Crab Apple) trees are 20 years old and large healthy trees - proven fully cold hardy to our cold winters. Every year we collect the seeds and start a new crop of apple root stocks. After a year or two they're large enough to graft on the named cultivar of apple, and we then we grow the grafted trees for one final year in the nursery.
