The figbid rabbit hole....

Me neither. I see most apple scions sell for around $10, many less than $10. I searched for expensive apple scions and couldn't find anything more than $75, which was for honeycrisp.
That said... honeycrisp is a bloody good apple! After eating a few I found myself looking for dwarfs... We do have lots of apple pollinators around.

You just need to find out what dwarf rootstock likes your area and soil then you can pretty much have whatever variety you want grafted onto it. Bud9, M9, G11, G41, G214 would be a few to investigate they are in the 30 percent size range

The problem... I find when I go to local nurseries and ask these questions...Like, "what rootstock is this grown on?" I tend to get a certain "look"
