This past weekend, I volunteered at a scion swap. When the event was over, I scooped up all the unused apple scionwood, all of it collected in zone 4 or 5. Varieties listed below. For trades, I’m into russet apple scionwood, northern adapted okra seeds, seakale divisions, etc. If you do not have rootstock at the moment, you can graft onto an established apple tree to save until next year. If you would like to topwork a big tree (crown graft), let me know and I may be able to send multiple sticks of the variety.

Dang that’s an impressive list. I’m trying to grow pre-1800 varietals ([for allergy reasons](https://goingtoseed.discourse.group/t/breeding-apples-from-ancient-apples-for-people-allergic-to-raw-apples/3579)) but the ones I’m still looking for aren’t on your list, so I’ll have to go through and see if any of those are pre 1800 that I don’t already have. I’m looking for: Blue Pearmain Chestnut Crab Court Pendu Plat Grimes Golden Roxbury Russet Surprise, Pink, early 1800s Swiss Limbertwig or other Limbertwigs I know you probably don’t have those, just on the off chance that someone reads your list and mine and maybe has the ones I’m missing. ---

I don’t have any of those at the moment, but next year I could source (from friends’ orchards): Blue Pearmain Court Pendu Plat Grimes Golden Roxbury Russet ---

Ok here below are the scion varietals I’m interested in. For trade I have catawissa walking onions to trade, lots of seeds including cold stratified maypop seeds that i confirmed are germinating a little (are you just out of range?), electronics (custom built solar meshtastic node for off grid texting), table grape cuttings, sunhigh peach and italian plum scions next winter, fig cuttings i’ve been rooting, lots of seeds for eventually landracing including moschata, watermelon, etc, homemade apple butter.

scions from your list I would love to get: Baldwin 1784 Bramley’s Seedling 1809 Golden Russet pre 1845 (I only got this far, I’ll continue to research ages and parentage tomorrow) continued: Northern Spy circa 1800 Pound Sweet early 1800s White Pippin aka Ortley pre 1800 Wickson (I grafted a scion of this but it doesn’t look like it took, would love another) Let me know if you want any of the trade able items I listed! If not, we can still work something out. Thanks!
