The following post came from Canada.  Does anyone in the states have a few of 
either
or each they can sell me?

I think I can get permission from the owner of the flood-tolerant apple tree 
to let
me plant other flood-tolerant rootstocks near the tree.  That will be the
side-by-side trial.  From digging the holes, I expect I'll get a few roots of 
the
promising tree, for root-propagation.  Can the more knowledgeable growers 
point out
flaws in my plan?  Thanks!
