Apple tree cuttings
In article ,
says...
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.

Try some hard wood cuttings now, normal method. should get 100% take but
do leave them at least a year before moving them
