Hello everyone,
My 6 year old son got very excited when he found pips in his apple (Pink Lady), so of course we had to sow them to see if they would grow. They did in a matter of days (to my surprise actually!). My question is whether these would actually make a suitable plant on my allotment? (I had toyed with the idea of apple cordons etc next year), or will they be too big/not suitable/wrong climate etc? I know most apple trees come on some sort of alternative root stock but I don't know about apple trees grown from pips. Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks, Jules
