Rootstock . Bud 9 : 1/4″

The Budagovsky 9 (Bud 9) rootstock is highly cold-hardy and disease resistant. Producing a full-dwarf tree at 25-30% of standard size, it is an excellent choice for high-density plantings and is compatible with a wide range of apple varieties. This rootstock is known for its precocity and robust productivity but requires support during the first few years due to its compact stature.
