Scion Exchange 2023
Oak Summit Nursery Scion Exchange list for 2023
For a trade send me an email doug@oaksummitnursery.ca
I can only ship scions inside Canada, we’re in Manitoba.
We can accept trades up until the end of April when grafting season starts.
Our scions will also be available for purchase at $4 ea.
Have:
We just have a handful of scions for each available, maybe 5 max. The rest we need to save for bench grafting this spring.
I went ahead and googled the zone hardiness for your reference in (), I know that’s the first thing I lookup for new cultivars.
* Scion wood will be available to ship around the middle of March.

All are zone 3 hardy trees and perennials, some collected locally in Manitoba.

Want:
Here's I'll list everything that I would accept on trade. It's a long list, some of these are cultivars and some are just species. Some is more common, some sort of rare - this is one way we're looking to build a collection of interesting things to propagate at our nursery.

Hardwood Cuttings / Scions:
The following are usually propagated from cuttings but can also be grafted, so I would probably try a combination of both. Regular dormant scion length works for both.
