I've had no problem with planting fruit trees in early to mid September. I wouldn't plant them right now though. No idea what they have for inventory. I don't get to Sauk much. I drove past Tree Top 10 days to 2 weeks ago and they had a bunch of fruit trees then, but zero idea what varieties or rootstocks they're on.

Nice variety. .. Fireside and Kindercrisp looked good. Kinderkrisp has been a healthy tree and also a good apple for people. It is smaller than a HC, but a winner. It was developed by a small orchard owner in central Minnesota. Not a U of Mn release.

Would Kindercrisp and Fireside be good together, I will add more, such as a few crabapples? Still a little concerned about the fall planting, but worth a try.

I would say most of my plantings have been in the fall because thats when I buy most trees because they are on clearance.
I have not had really any issues with them dying over their first winter. My ongoing issues are that I tend to lose a tree or two every winter, but they are ones that have been in the ground for a few years.

The key is to keep them well watered until freeze up if the rains don't come

I needed window screen and it's a shitty day, so I ran to Sauk Centre on the way to Fleet Farm in Alex. Tree Top still has 40% off fruit trees and it looked like a decent selection of varieties. If I had taken my F250 with an 8' box I probably would have snatched up a Haralson and Fireside.

Thanks very much for the offer. I bought 28' of 36" high stuff. I should be set. Of course, I thought that the last time I bought a roll too
