We cut each stick during full dormancy to protect bud strength and ensure strong grafting success. Every 12 inch stick contains multiple viable buds and comes from true to type trees.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"911\" data-end=\"1203\">Growers select Golden Russet apple scionwood for its rich flavor and exceptional sugar content. This historic russet variety works well for bench grafting onto rootstock or for top working established apple trees. It suits orchardists who want a dual purpose apple for fresh eating and cider.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1205\" data-end=\"1234\">A Classic American Russet<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1236\" data-end=\"1498\">Golden Russet produces small to medium fruit with rough, golden brown skin and dense, sweet flesh. The flavor is concentrated and aromatic with honeyed notes and balanced acidity. Cider makers value this variety for its high natural sugar and depth of character.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1500\" data-end=\"1571\">The fruit stores well and often develops improved flavor after harvest.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1573\" data-end=\"1600\">Growing Characteristics<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1602\" data-end=\"1835\">Golden Russet trees grow with moderate vigor and benefit from regular pruning. Provide good airflow and full sunlight to maintain fruit quality. In cooler climates, the variety ripens mid to late season and produces consistent crops.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1837\" data-end=\"1912\">This apple fits well into diversified orchards and cider focused plantings.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1914\" data-end=\"1939\">Grafting and Shipping<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1941\" data-end=\"2164\">We ship Golden Russet apple scionwood during dormancy to preserve freshness and vigor. The wood works well for whip and tongue grafting, cleft grafting, and bark grafting. Each stick receives clear labeling before shipment.<\/p>\n<p>.<a href=\"https:\/\/littlebearfoxfarm.com\/shop\/product-category\/scionwood\/\">Learn more about our full apple scionwood collection to explore additional heirloom and cider varieties for your orchard.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>How scionwood ordering works:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Each order includes one 12-inch dormant scionwood stick.<br \/>\n\u2022 Scionwood is cut fresh during winter pruning and shipped promptly.<br \/>\n\u2022 Store scionwood refrigerated on arrival until ready to graft.<br \/>\n\u2022 These are cuttings for grafting, not potted or bare-root trees.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Historic russet apple with very high sugar content and rich flavor.
