DB> is anyone out there who can explain to me about dwarf apple trees:
DB> 1. how wide do they spread?
IIRC it depends on exactly which rootstock is used.
DB> 2. amount of fruit produce?
I would expect it to produce as much as a regular tree for the same
amount of tree. I think all that is effected is the size of the tree,
not the size of the fruit, nor the rate of fruit production per foot
of branch.
DB> a. at what age of tree?
DB> 3. how deep do roots grow?
DB> 4. do you need to spray for worms/bugs/??
I can't see how the size of the tree would affect the bugs going for it.
DB> Thanks for any and all info. Daughter is think of planting one in her
Ronda, eh? How's the little one? Is ECS still in business? Haven't
seen any ads for it in a while.
