Hiya All,
I brought a dwarf Granny Smith from Tass1Trees. The label says that it is on M28 rootstock. Would this be correct?. The label is handwritten so maybe it should say M26?.
Any opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jodie

No such thing as M28, Joe told me it's M26 and that what's written on my trees from him.

TASS 1 trees and Dawsons sell trees on this stock, root prune the plant you buy and plant, then graft on the top the following year.

They don't sell them direct as they loose the good bit of the profit of selling a grafted tree.
