The use of dwarfing and semi-dwarfing rootstocks for apples has met with apparent success in Europe. The results in the United States have been quite variable from different areas, and many difficulties have arisen from the use of these rootstocks. Peculiarities in root development of many of the Malling series have resulted in trees that lean or break over. The use of dwarfing interstocks has not been entirely successful in overcoming this defect, since incompatibi1ity between certain rootstocks and the intermediate stem piece has been found.
