APPLE ROOTSTOCK
M27
The
least vigorous of all the rootstocks - grown as a bush tree, they can be
spaced as little as 1.2m (4ft) apart.
The
serious drawback to garden cultivation of M27 rootstock is that the conditions must be
perfect and the crop of apples will be relatively small. No competition from
weeds or grass, very fertile soil and permanent staking are the downside.
GardenAction
do not recommend this rootstock for open garden cultivation. However, they
make excellent large tub plants or will grow reasonably well on patios.

GardenAction provides the amateur gardener with lots of
information for free. If you would like to donate some money
to us, DON'T!
Instead, we ask that make a small
donation to a very worthwhile charity. Money contributed
up to mid July 2008 will go to CAMDA and CDPF.
You donate direct to them by supporting a GardenAction author
in his attempt to travel from England to Mongolia at his own
expense. You donate direct to the charity. Even a couple of
pounds will be greatly appreciated.
