Apple trees are composed of two distinct components: rootstocks and scions. Rootstocks determine the tree's hardiness, growth habits, and size, while scions are the actual fruit-bearing parts grafted onto the rootstock. This combination allows for the cultivation of diverse apple varieties, each tailored for specific climatic conditions and soil types. By understanding the structure of apple trees, growers can make informed choices about which combinations to plant for optimal fruit production and health.
