I am looking to order 40-50 rootstocks for myself and I have priced out various rootstock suppliers and thought I would check if any other members might be interested in going in on an order through copenhagen.
I am mostly interested in EMLA 111, Bud 9, and G.890 for apple rootstock and OHxF 87 for pear rootstock.  I would likely want 20-30 of each type of rootstock (was considering getting larger diameter pear rootstock so bundle size is only 25 as I don't really need 20-30 pear trees as I plan to graft 12-14 pears this coming spring)
I am also interested in Bud 118 as an alternative to EMLA 111 as I plan to interstem the bud 9 and EMLA 111 and Bud 118 is a good substitute.
May be interested in other rootstocks but really plan to use G.890 no matter what.
Here is a link to apple pricing

and pear

I am not looking to make a profit on this and don't really want to mess with 4-5 people to make the order, would prefer 1-2 other individuals to keep things simple.

I went with pretty much the same sort of stuff - put in an order a couple weeks ago. I didn’t realize orders had to get in so early! Also went through the bulk dilemma, you may want to call copenhaven but their inventory page says they’re out of 890 in all but 7/16” which would maybe limit your choices. I had to learn to cleft graft this spring for that reason - the P18 I got was huge and some scion that I bought was teansie.  Cummins should still have a decent selection though prices are a little higher.
 
It's hard to fight evil. The little things, like a nice sandwich, really helps. Right tiny ad?
