Brad says... The answer to this might be no, since Jimmy was buying in - but are there really no old orchards or growers in WA with a range of heritage apples, willing to provide propagation material to those willing to grow on rarer apples? Surely there's someone / somewhere in the hills / manjimup / dwellingup with some good material. Maybe a random search in fruiting season is the way to find trees? I finally got my hand on Kevin's book (applenut) and was looking at the list of heritage apples we can now buy in, but I'm interested in the idea of finding the odd special old tree or orchard, or something thats trying to be 'saved' rather than (or perhaps in addition to) something thats already commercial enough to be sold This time next year I'll have the space to play. Perhaps multigraft M7 or even (if the space exists) seedling rootstock | About the Author Brad2 Como, Perth 20th August 2010 6:02pm #UserID: 2323 Posts: 762 View All Brad2's Edible Fruit Trees |

amanda says... Hi Brad, these people might be able to help you with information on Tydeman's: http://www.appletrees.com.au/index.htm It's not on their list - but they may know if it exists or not. | About the Author amanda19 Geraldton.
