Title: Re: scion wood
Hi all,
 
I mentioned in a previous posting about another terrific scionwood site. I spoke to the fellow, and you can also order scionwood from him. Contact is Bill Wheeler at Inner Coast Nursery. He had to suspend things for awhile, but is back operating in a limited capacity. His email is billwheel@gmail.com and you can look at his old list, which is still pretty accurate, at http://mars.ark.com/~squeeze/apls-in.htp  Quick thought - I only spoke to him about scionwood - but he also does grafting. Don't know if he wants to send to Ontario though.
 
Another wonderful contact is Derry Walsh. Her web page is  http://derrysorchardandnursery.ca  A batch of her trees just arrived last week - very healthy. She grows her newly grafted rootstock in pots, then sends them out with roots well protected in bags. Instead of the usual bare root, you get a root system with all those wonderful feeder roots.
 
Joe, thanks for the lead on Charlie Eagle. I spoke with him and will be placing an order. We had a nice chat about the Foxwhelp cider apple, which is not the true Foxwhelp, but everyone out west seems to have the same thing.  Also, don't worry about scionwood costs - it's my pleasure to share these things within the group. I figure these things all balance themselves out over time.
 
Cheers to all, Bizmark.

Dan:

I was searching the InterNet for scion wood and a came across "Bright Farm Scion Tree List". It had a note that scion wood would be available in February but there did not seem to be a way to contact them. Are you the contact? Does one have to be a member of the Seed and Plant Sanctuary for Canada to obtain scion wood?
 
 
with thanks,  Joe
