[CANUFNET] Malus espalier

[BGeerts at brantford.ca]

I've seen listings for Fuji espalier trees, but only one time.  There's a 
link here: 
https://www.westonnurseries.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=plants.plantDetail&plant_id=10166&typeID= 
 

I've seen grafted espalier in private gardens in the Netherlands where 
each lateral branch was a different apple type.  I've not seen the 
multi-type apples marketed for espalier but it can easily be done.  Worked 
very well for cross pollination.  Pleaching is also a good form for 
confined areas.

To all,

 

I have been looking for apple trees grown for the purpose of espalier
plantings..I have heard rumours that they exist but the last two springs I
failed to connect.

Does anyone know a nursery that is growing this kind of stock.in Ontario 
or
willing to ship here??

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,
