Grafted Apple Trees
Grafted Apple Trees
Trees are 4’-6’ and bare-rooted. They were grafted in 2022 or 2023 onto Antonovka seedling (standard) rootstock. They will be available for shipping or pick up in Palermo, ME this spring once the ground has thawed and before they break dormancy. We wrap the roots in wet, shredded newspaper for shipping. You can read more about the different cultivars and their uses by downloading this pdf file.
Once you receive your tree, keep it in a cool, dark place such as a basement or garage, until you are ready to plant. Do not let the tree freeze. Make sure the newspaper surrounding the roots stays moist. Soak the rooks in a bucket of clean water for several hours before planting. Give the tree plenty of water the first month it is in the ground.
