Rootstocks:
Along with these new varieties we are excited to introduce a new series of rootstocks for cherry, peach, plum, apricot, and other prunus varieties. Some will be available for 2013, and the rest will follow during the next couple of years.
These new rootstocks will allow for a wider range of options within the prunus category, offering the grower many positive traits that will enhance planting on marginal sites which in the past were not suited for Mazzard or Mahaleb. One rootstock will offer dwarfing similar to Gisela while lowering establishment cost.
