Last spring I got to thinking about how to utilize my space best and I turned my west facing fence line into apple cordons. I have about 80ft with 24 trees, about 2 1/2 ft apart, all on dwarfing rootstocks. Too early to tell but they seemed to grow decent/good their first year. I did make sure everything was spur bearing before selecting cultivars. I do have a mix of vigor so we’ll see how that turns out. Surprisingly there are fruit spurs on about half of them after one year in the ground.
