apple trees
Welcome to Apple Trees, this site is fanatical about anything to do with apples and apple trees. Our fanaticism started when we planted our dwarf apple tree in our small back garden. Gradually, this became an obsession and to cut a long story short, we bought some land and started our own orchard.


To say our apple trees are our passion would be an understatement. We will be gradually adding lots of photos and apple trees articles, including growing apple tree guides, guide on dwarf apples trees, apple recipes, apple tree growing and much more!

You will be able to buy apple trees here also! Apple trees for sale around the UK will be listed, as will review guides and how to buy apple trees.


Making A Rootstock When Growing Fruit Trees From Seeds?

Apple Trees - Q&A

I really want to grow fruit trees such as apple, pear, peach, plum etc…. However I know that if you grow them from seeds they take many years and may not even produce edible fruit.
So I was thinking that I should try and root stock them like they come when you buy them, just that it would be cheaper and better fun if I did it myslef. Is it possible to do or am I just kidding myself?
Thanks for any help :)

    your best bet is to root from new growth off a tree you want. The down side is the root system of most commercially grown fruit trees are probably grafted from a nut tree. The natural root system of a fruit tree is not aggressive enough to sustain it in severe conditions hence the graft.
