>>>
>>> c) Colonnade Trees, which grow straight up, no pruning ever and can be planted 3 feet apart. Apple on a Stick.
>>>
>>>
>>> 5) Ultimate Size Possibilities
>>>
>>> Tree size is determined by a few factors. One is Rootstock used and the other is the Variety.
>>>
>>> ROOTSTOCK:
>>>
>>> a) Most of my trees are on a vigorous rootstock (Bud 118), which produces a large tree about 16 feet tall and 16 feet spacing between trees. Bud 118 give a DROUGHT RESISTANT tree (strong root) that does not need as much summer water (after first 5 years).
>>>
>>> b) INTERSTEM DWARF, which is a dwarf having a vigourous rootstock (Bud 118), with a dwarfing section added, so it does not need as much summer water. INTERSTEM TREES are dwarf trees. I do have some INTERSTEM DWARF trees left now. Most are red flesh varieties. Look for the word INTERSTEM in the Varieties Available List.
>>>
>>>
>>> VARIATION DUE TO VARIETY
>>>
>>> c) The Poppys Wonder apple tree (a Cox Cross from Victoria, BC), grows only about 8 feet across so it does not spread as much as other trees. It is a narrower tree that normal. A wonderful apple.
>>>
>>> d) Collonade Apple trees (a natural mutation of a MacIntosh tree) produce a very narrow (2 feet) tree that grows straight up to about 12 feet. No Pruning ever as it is a Spur Bearing Tree. These can be planted 3 feet apart, so make a great hedge, can be planted in pots and in locations where there is not the room for a regular tree. The original tree was called Wijick, from the Okanagan. Further breeding has produced a series called Sentinels (from BC) and Spires (from England.) So Wijick, any variety with Sentinel, and any variety with Spire, will be all the Colonnades.
