Owner's comments

There is no designation for bench graft at the age of planting, but this began life here as a bench graft, so it will be a whip at start of 2015. I expect Hunt Russet/P2 to reach a height of 9 feet or less when mature in Spokane. It is 18 inches tall from the graft this year. Weeding: I mulch, so little bother concerning weeds.
