The message
from "Derek" contains these words:

Have any members of the goup had any sucess taking cuttings from old trees
we have a mature baker (probably Bramley but very heavy cropper) I would
like to propagate. I'd rather it grew on its own rootstock than graft. I'm
looking to take softwood spurs around May.

Traditionally, Bramley's Seedling grows on its own rootstock. Last year
they might have done well, but I took a lot of cuttings from two trees a
couple or three years ago, and despite keeping in partial shade and them
well watered, they all died.
