If you contact Frank P Matthews, they may be able to help. I have to say that grafting onto a rootstock is not for the beginner!

Tesco and certainly Morrisons have been selling fruit trees really cheap. I mean like £2.25 to £5.00. 1 - 1.6 meters tall, bare rooted. I bought about 8 maybe 10 of them. All sorts BUT some of them I only wanted for their root stock. Everything is growing and is coming into leaf or flower. Once established over the summer I can then graft what ever I want onto the root stock.Lots of people will give you cutting you can graft on, just for the postage cost,

Cheating really, but lets me play about for little money. I have grafted a few trees before and success even for an idiot like me is 40%.

thanks for that,i have bought trees for our orchard but thought i might have a go myself.wanted to start from scratch but may try the grafting bit first on a bought one.
