The Malling series is a group of rootstocks for grafting apple trees. It was developed at the East Malling Research Station of the South-Eastern Agricultural College at Wye in Kent , England. From about 1912, Ronald Hatton and his colleagues rationalised, standardised and catalogued the various rootstocks in use in Europe at the time under ...
Malling-Merton 106 rootstock is slightly smaller than MM 111, but is a very productive tree and has early fruiting abilities. [11] It is a great rootstock to be used in a variety of soil conditions because it is very hardy with moderate vigour. [11] This rootstock must be planted in well-drained soils as it is susceptible to collar rot. [11]
Stalk 10 mm (0.39 in). Extremely tolerant of cold weather, and because it produces a single, deep taproot (unusual among apple trees), Antonovka is propagated for use as a rootstock. Antonovka rootstock provides a cold-hardy (to −45 °C (−49 °F)), well-anchored, vigorous, standard-sized tree. C 15. Cooking, cider PickE early September.
Five types of rootstock predominate in temperate climates where cold or freezing weather is not probable, especially Florida and southern Europe: A double graft union of diamante citron upon sour orange rootstock. Sour orange: the only rootstock that truly is an orange (the Citrus × aurantium or bitter orange). It is vigorous and highly ...
Turpentine is a small, high fiber mango that is poly embryonic mango. Turpentine is used as a rootstock in Florida for grafting other mango varieties. Ugly Betty: Valencia Pride: South Africa, United States Large, oblong mango. Sweet, mild flavor, but the fruit is prone to splitting on the tree. The tree is a vigorous grower. Van Dyke: Italy ...
The popular sweet variety "Stella" can even be successfully grown in a pot on the patio when grafted onto a "Colt" rootstock. [15] A newer rootstock, "Gisela 5", [16] is slowly becoming available to gardeners and produces a tree 20% smaller than "Colt" and 45% smaller than "Mahaleb" and "Mazzard", making netting for bird protection much easier ...
Cider apple varieties are grafted onto semi-dwarfing rootstocks and reach a maximum height of 15 to 20 feet (4.5 to 6 m). [44] Trees are planted at a density of approximately 750 per hectare, with trees spaced 2 – 3 m (6.5–10 ft) apart in rows 5.5 m (18 ft) wide. [ 45 ]
Citrumelo is widely employed as a citrus rootstock, [1] being resistant to the severe citrus tristeza virus and to phytophthora root rot as well as to blight, cold, and citrus nematode. [2] The trees can survive temperatures into the teens ( Fahrenheit ); [ 3 ] one specimen in North Carolina reportedly survived temperatures below zero Fahrenheit.
