Whatcha thinking about doing?
If bare root, you better have them ordered.
Order scion? Rootstock?
I could get some Connell Red scion and give it a try again. 30 years ago, I planted one and that record cold winter took it out.
I am going to watch this GRIN Jonsib for a bit, but maybe it should go on a rootstock instead of just on a limb of a flowering crab. I have a Rescue crab that doesn’t impress me and maybe should convert it to Grin Jonsib.
Maybe pipsqueak, but my luck with that is like Stu’s with Bastians Orange Flesh.
I will be wintering two deer crabs in pots in the garden along with a rootsucker from the old chestnut crab. That one may go up north. I converted several of those rootsuckers to Big Dog and Buckman crab. They had been in place for 6-7 years and were all ready fruiting.
