They look much better than any other apples the tree has ever produced - big and colourful and beautiful; but only two.<br /><br />Everyone else's apple tree round here is bowed down by fruit. You can hardly see branches there's so much of it.<br /><br />It's a swizz!Esther Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05412078991551799972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30590907.post-30831615342231168452011-10-10T22:00:09.193-04:002011-10-10T22:00:09.193-04:00If it's any comfort some years are good for fr...If it's any comfort some years are good for fruit, others are not. Last year we had an abundance of wild grapes and plums. This year there were 3 fruits on the plum bush and the only wild grapes I've seen were in the upper reaches of tree. This year we had edible pears and that's the first time in about 8 years. About 5 years ago we had a great crop of crab apples but I've hardly seen a one since then. Of course if you're into using lots of chemicals I think that might make a big difference with your apples.Lisa from Iroquoisnoreply@blogger.com
