Bob says... my red Shahtoot is growing on a black mulberry root. The diameter of the Shahtoot trunk is about twice the diameter of the rootstock. From this I assume that the rootstock is dwarfing the tree. I am on an acreage so tree size doesn't matter, and I would like to see how big it will get. At some time Shahtoots must have grown on their own roots. | About the Author Bob Glendale 2nd November 2016 5:44pm #UserID: 5619 Posts: 8 View All Bob's Edible Fruit Trees |
Kam says... Hi Bob My white shahtoot which I bought is doing very well. Not sure what root stock it was budded on. The other 2 which I have budded on to black mulberry root stock are in pots and are doing very well too. I have found on both trees, one had taken over and killed the black mulberry branches. It has many Shahtoot fruits. The other Shahtoot tree had shot up and have lots of fruits but the black mulberry branches are not growing much only a few fruits to pick. Looking at the tree eventually the Shahtoot will take over the black mulberry just the other. Shahtoot grows into a big tree like the black mulberry? | About the Author Kam Perth 4th November 2016 7:59pm #UserID: 10241 Posts: 29 View All Kam's Edible Fruit Trees |
