Apple Trees

David and I have always wanted apple trees but this year we finally ordered some! We bought six semi-dwarf trees from Schlabach's Nursery where one of David's buddies bought some fruit trees and has had success with them. They ship them basically as sticks with the roots wrapped up in plastic wrap. We got one Gala, McIntosh, Cortland, Golden Delicious and two Honeycrisps. We put them in an opening on the east side of our lot where we had the most space that wasn't on a slop. I don't think they'll produce anything for at least a couple of years so here's to being patient!

Let's get planting!

Now all we can do is wait

Great way to end a beautiful weekend
