This is a modern semi-vigorous apple rootstock known as a strong replacement for MM106, offering similar high yields but in a slightly smaller tree, around 10% less vigorous, with excellent resistance to collar rot (Phytophthora), mildew, and woolly apple aphid, making it great for replant sites and heavier soils, though it's harder to propagate via cuttings. Bred from MM106 x M27 at East Malling, it provides good productivity, precocity, and adaptability, requiring staking when young.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCultural:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant in deeply worked, free-draining soil.
