Too many apple seedlings, how can that be? I would plant a wee forest of them, and make apple butter in the early winter.
Seriously, very nice of you to offer them to hospice shop, and good luck with the ones you planted. wish I was nearer to you, would take the lot of them. -H

What you need to do is get some misletoe, cut a branch and rub the seeds of e misletoe into it. In a year or two, you will have some misletoe for e charity shops to sell. Misletoe is a parasite that thrives on fruit trees although it can be grown on others

Remember that mistletoe will eventually kill it's host tree and if that's ok, go ahead. Someone's got to make sure we have enough mistletoe for Christmas ;) (and where's that kissy smilie when you need it? lol)
