Well dang it. Thanks for letting me know. I was supposed to get some.........
It may not be a bad deal as they told me it was a dawf tree and the 111 root stock would require it to be staked and it would be brittle.He said there were alot better wildlife crabs.I told him I just wanted a couple for color but he asked to call them back after first of year and they should know for what they have
I just received paperwork from them confirming my order of 6 trees. It was dated 1/4/17. I had planned on calling to see if my order was canceled but didn't get around to it. Maybe they didn't lose them all. I suppose I will need to call as I was going to order more trees to replace these.
I may call and see whats going on,I may just try to order something for next year as he said that this rootstock would make a dwarf tree that would have to be staked as it is brittle.He didn't think they had enough grafts live so wasn't going to sell.I hope you get some of them
I don't understand him saying it will be a dwarf tree that needs staking. On M111 rootstock it should be a fairly large tree that is self supporting, or am I wrong? I was excited to find them on that rootstock. Of course he is the expert and I am a weekend warrior. I will be happy to get a few trees, I am thinking a few grafted on 118 rootstock would make nice trees if they produce heavy and hold late. Either way they look like a neat tree. Time will tell I guess.
