Myrobalan is a standard fully vigorous rootstock, compatible with all European plum varieties, and the best choice if you want to plant a traditional plum orchard.
Myrobalan produces a mature tree with a height of 5m - 6m or more, and fruit production should start at the age of 3-4 years. No staking is required once the tree is established.
The trees should be spaced 5m - 7m apart.
Rootstocks are usually 8-10mm grade, the best size for grafting. Please order by January for delivery in February - March. If you wish to order a large number of rootstocks please contact us.
