planting out a bed of mustang cherry rootstocks
planting out a bed of mustang cherry rootstocks. These should be large enough to bud in July. Our reserves of scion wood for many cultivars have been grafted out around the orchard, one reason to have an orchard next to the nursery - a ready supply of scion wood. This is one immediate benefit of our wild rootstock experiment, even if there is delayed graft compatibility in a few years for some cultivars, this summer we’re successfully growing scion wood. #rootstock #cherryplum #mustangcherry #growingtrees #treenursery
