No, I usually don't, except for newly planted trees..That very tree in the image is at least 45 years old, and that is - concerning apple-trees on low-growing root-stocks -, something about 100 years in human measures.
btw Years ago I have aleady graftes scions of this tree onto another stock, which are doing very fine.
Thanks for looking. Have a nice day!.
