Good saplings

Bought an apple tree seedlock, well and planted in time, cared for him. Some time passed, and the village took and extinct into one of the harsh winters. Or, on the contrary, withstanding harsh winters, the seedling turned out to be at all the varieties that you wanted ... familiar situation?
Let's hope that only hearsay. In order not to be in such a situation, we really advise you to listen to the following advice.
Purchase seedlings from nurseries closest to you. Moreover, the grade must be zoned in your zone. For example, Moldova or Poland seedlings in the conditions of Belarus or Moscow region cannot be resistant and adapted to our winters. They often freeze.
Do not buy seedlings in the spontaneous markets from strangers. They are well equipped with colorful photographs and even samples of fruits of one or another variety. But in fact, spending several years to care for the tree, you can get bitterly disappointed as a result.
Pay attention to the appearance of the seedling. The strab should be straight, with healthy and smooth bark, without mechanical damage. The root system is not dried, but
The roots themselves are on the cut of white. If they are brown, darkened, this indicates frozen, drying or illness.
Do not buy seedlings on the roots of which are visible swollen, stuff (root cancer). But if there is no other choice, do not be mistaken, the main thing is that the growths do not squeeze the root neck: such a seedling is doomed to death. In all other cases, cut the heights with a knife or a secateur and disembark as usual. The observations of Polish scientists have shown that the trees planted in the garden are growing and fruit is quite normal.
A good crown of a two-year seedlings is considered to be such that has at least three-four developed healthy branches, evenly located in different directions, and necessarily direct central conductor.
