just a big handful of grafted pears available this winter

just a big handful of grafted pears available this winter. I'm working on ramping up rootstock production, but it's tough in Canada. ohxf87 is in the works, but it just doesn't work for us to buy them in, I haven't found a supplier for ussurian seedlings or ohxf87 at some reasonable wholesale rate. so I grow my own. ussurian pear seedlings, more so than siberian crabapple really do take an extra year or two produce a grafted tree. next summer I'm going to expand ohxf87 softwood propagation, and add in some experiment pear stocks, like cotoneaster and any see if any of our russian pears are candidates. pears essentially, don't stoolbed easily, at least the rootstocks that are cold hardy, but it seems some of them do root from softwood.
