Custom Budding and Contract Growing
Save Money by Planning Ahead!
Moser Fruit Tree Sales
usually places large
contracts of fruit trees, over 1000, with our normal suppliers in order to get
you the best price and quality. However, for small amounts it is more
difficult for the large nurseries to handle properly.
How many times have you run into the problem of trying to get just a few trees
of an old apple variety or cultivar? Sometimes, we can find that same variety for
you, but too often the cultivar has been discontinued or dropped from
production. Sometimes, the original nursery doesn't even have scionwood
available anymore.
Moser Fruit Tree Sales can now offer you some help. If you
are looking for a small amount of that special variety, not currently available
in the trade, or maybe not available on the rootstock you prefer, we may be able
to bud and grow some for you. We specialize in semi-dwarf Geneva 30, EMLA
7, EMLA 106, dwarf Bud 9 and other rootstocks.
Let us know the specific combination
of cultivar and rootstock. We may not be able to propagate any varieties or
cultivars, still protected by current plant patents, unless we can get proper
licenses from the patent owners, but we can do many antique, heritage, and
older apple varieties that no longer are readily available. In most cases,
you supply us the budwood so that we are sure that we will be doing the specific
cultivar that you need, but we are in the process of establishing a diverse
scionwood orchard of heritage, antique, cider, and hard-to-find- original
strains of apples.
If you have a new discovery, either a
seedling or a sport, of something that you think is unique or special, and want
a small quantity of trees we can grow them for you. We can also help
evaluate it and work with our major nursery partners to determine its commercial
potential and develop it further.
While we speculate on a certain quantity of
roots, we need to know your needs as soon as possible. Budding starts in
August, and we must have your choice of rootstock planted and available in the
quantities you need by that previous spring.
