Hallo Lon,[snip]
people who are interested in S. domestica are very rare...
People who have such a nice homepage and experience like you are
extremely rare!!!
Regards also from Clive Simms from England!
Yes the astringency is lost at a special time by it selves. Anyhow this
astringency is also necessary and positive for the apple-wine
production. The fruits are used also more and more in the fine cuisine
cooking. Even as dessert and ice cream. The tree is very useful for
landscaping and environmental purposes.
The wood is really nice and very, very high priced because it is very
much used in music-instrument, expensive furniture and e.g. ruler
production; because the wood is not shrinking and expanding like other
wood! I try to send you an interesting photo directly to your e-mail
address.
The grafting is not secret at all, but I think in many countries this
Sorbus domestica is not known and people do not have any experience.
The rootstock can be Crataegus monog. or Sorbus domestica! Never try S.
aucuparia.
ciao
hans
