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=\"904\" data-end=\"1163\">Growers value Wickson apple scionwood for its intense sweetness and sharp acidity. This small fruited crab apple produces juice with high sugar content and bright structure. It works well for bench grafting onto rootstock or for top working established trees.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1165\" data-end=\"1198\">A High Sugar Cider Crab Apple<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1200\" data-end=\"1423\">Wickson originated in California and gained recognition for its remarkable sugar levels. The fruit is small but dense with concentrated flavor. Cider makers use Wickson to increase gravity and add vibrant acidity to blends.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1425\" data-end=\"1501\">Despite its size, the apple delivers bold character and aromatic complexity.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1530\">Growing Characteristics<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1532\" data-end=\"1769\">Wickson trees grow with moderate vigor and respond well to regular pruning. Provide good sunlight and airflow to maintain fruit quality. In cooler climates, the variety ripens mid season and performs reliably with attentive orchard care.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1771\" data-end=\"1869\">This apple suits growers building a cider focused orchard or adding diversity to a mixed planting.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1871\" data-end=\"1896\">Grafting and Shipping<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1898\" data-end=\"2115\">We ship Wickson 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>High-sugar crab apple ideal for bold, aromatic cider.
