What Kinds of Fruit Trees Does Wafler Nursery Offer?

Wafler Nursery specializes in apple and pear trees, with stone fruit also listed among its offerings. The nursery grows over 200 varieties of custom-budded apple and pear trees across multiple rootstocks, and it sells bareroot trees that can ship throughout the US and Canada. If you are looking for a specific apple or pear variety on a rootstock suited to your site, this is the core of what the nursery provides.

Apple and pear trees: the main focus

Apple and pear trees are the nursery's specialty. Two details matter when you are deciding whether it fits your planting plan:

• Custom budding. Trees are budded to order rather than pulled from a fixed retail stock, which is how the nursery supports such a wide variety count.
• Rootstock choice. The same variety can be grown on different rootstocks, so the tree you receive can be matched to your soil, spacing, and trellis system rather than to a single default size.

The nursery describes its trees as bareroot, meaning they ship dormant without soil around the roots. Bareroot trees are lighter to ship and generally establish well when planted in the dormant season, but they need to go into the ground promptly after arrival.

Stone fruit

Stone fruit trees are also listed among the nursery's offerings alongside apples and pears. If your interest is primarily peaches, plums, or similar fruit, it is worth confirming current availability directly, since the nursery's public emphasis and variety count center on apple and pear.

Commercial growers vs. backyard growers

The nursery splits its catalog by buyer, and the split is the fastest way to tell whether it suits you.

If you are planting a home orchard or a handful of trees, the backyard path is the relevant one. If you are establishing or replanting a commercial block, the commercial varieties list is where to start.

Orchard supplies

Beyond trees, the nursery offers orchard supplies. These can be shipped to you or picked up at the nursery. Ordering supplies is handled by contacting the nursery rather than through a self-serve checkout, so plan for a conversation if you need stakes, trellis components, or similar items to go with your trees.

How to narrow down a variety

With hundreds of names in play, the practical sequence is:

1. Decide whether you are buying at commercial scale or 25 trees or less, and use the matching list.
2. Pick the variety based on your climate, intended use, and harvest window.
3. Choose the rootstock that fits your soil, spacing, and whether you plan to trellis the trees.
4. Confirm current availability and shipping details with the nursery before ordering.

The nursery publishes a full PDF catalog for download, which is the most efficient place to see varieties and rootstocks together. Its blog also covers related decisions, including how to choose an apple or pear tree for your yard, how to store apples and pears after harvest, and why backyard fruit trees may need support.

What to verify before ordering

Because variety and rootstock availability change and because custom-budded trees are grown to order, confirm the following with the nursery directly: whether your chosen variety and rootstock combination is available for the coming season, the minimum order for your buyer category, and the shipping timeline to your location in the US or Canada.
