I had three multiple apple trees. as a matter of fact I have many multiple variety trees. The one apple tree had over 75 varieties. another apple tree was mostly of apples of delicious and combinations of. Never had any problems. I just decided to get rid of apples mostly because I could no longer care for them properly. I do have a friend that had 2 apple trees of over 100 different varieties of different types one had 135 varieties. Something hit them both in the same year and he lost them both. Did he transfer something from a diseased scion from one tree to the other??? It was a very dry year that year. many of us lost trees that year.

Subject: [NAFEX] multiple apple cultivars on one tree?
Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2003 16:30:03 +0000
I plan to top-work some apple trees to different cultivars. Is there any harm to the tree in having two or more cultivars on the same tree? Should the cultivars have about the same harvest date or doesn't this matter? Is there any reason not to do this?
