Grow your own fruit trees this season! Rootstocks are the root systems onto which fruiting varieties (scion) are grafted—either in late winter/early spring for traditional grafting, or in late summer/early autumn for budding. They form the foundation of your tree, determining its size, vigour, pest and disease resistance, and overall stability.
September is prime grafting time, so order your rootstocks and grafting gear early to be ready. Want more time? Store rootstocks and scion wood at 4–6 °C to delay grafting into November. Keep roots moist, scion wood wrapped in damp newspaper and sealed in plastic bags, and remove rootstocks a week before grafting so they’re ready to grow.
See our guides to apple and pear rootstocks to choose the best match for your trees. Buy 6 or more rootstock bundles (5 per bundle) and save 10%, or buy 10 or more and save 15%.
