I was wondering if someone knew where I could obtain scion wood for the standard James Grieve apple. GRIN has the Red Rosamund strain but I am looking for the original James Grieve.

Maple Valley has it listed as well, but I suspect it's the same as the GRIN variety.

Thank you.

You could try Richard Fahey, c/o The Catholic Homesteading Movement, 21
Delaware Square, Norwich, NY 13815-A
He has a huge collection of apples.
Send a Self addressed stamped envelope and a dollar for his list. He has no phone or computer.
Or try http://www.nafex.org
