M27 - This 'miniature' extreme dwarfing rootstock is by far the greatest and dramatic release from our research stations and will reach 4ft. We still cannot offer any quantity of trees over 1 year old, as every season we have almost completely sold out. M27 is a stock that you can quite easily and happily grow in a pot or a window box.
M26 - Our most popular stock. Trees reach about 8-10ft high, crops in the second or third year depending on variety,quantity and quality of fruit excellent. Also unlike other dwarfing stocks , we consider M26 needs no staking unless in a very exposed situation.99% of our cultivars are available on the M26.Fans too are offered.Planting can be as close as 2ft for cordons or 8-10ft for bush/pyramids.
MM106 (semi-dwarfing) - The most widely planted rootstock for bush apples in commercial orchards. Attains a height of 12-15 ft. Quite early fruiting. Also used for fan trees and is also suitable for cordons. Plant 12-15 ft apart. Bush, fans and cordons 3ft.
