Hello Bizmark;

I would like to order 200 of the M-111 rootstock. Also, do you know where I 
could purchase a used but workable grafting appliance? I am just trying to 
get started with this... I have quite of few unidentified old apple trees on 
my property...so I want to graph & grow about 10 of each type.

I Live just north of Barrie... so I can arrange to travel to Creemore for 
pick-up.

Regards
Scott
