  6. A view of the pasture/orchard this afternoon when the water was on. Still bloom in the apples, everything else is done.

  8. Three more apple trees arrived for planting out: Laxton's Superb, Baker's Delicious and Chivers Delight. The pear trees from 2023 didn't do very well so I have given up on them for now (though it was mostly sheep and bugs!)

    It's quite complicated keeping track of all the different varieties we have, which are compatible pollinators, what time of year they fruit etc. Yes I have a spreadsheet.

  9. @coth @celesteh Intriguing - post spotted via a search. Do you remember the nursery name/website?

    I got our traditional Scottish pear & #AppleTrees from scottishfruittrees.com based near Glasgow - recommended.

  10. Rex Welland was a longtime local resident who loved collecting lots of #HeritageApple species. He spent a lifetime, collecting cuttings & grafting to grow in his large backyard. He donated this land, which was his backyard, as part of #LandConservancy agreement with the Town of View Royal to keep it as a heritage orchard for the community to steward & share.

    There's 125 heritage #apple species growing there.

  11. Anyone have advice on planting an apple seedling (sold with the roots in soil) in Wainuiomata, New Zealand. Which is on the border of USDA agricultural zones 9 and 10. The site has heavy clay soil and gets some very strong winds in Fall and Spring. They have gone to a proper nursery so hopefully have got something with appropriate root stock for the area.

    Especially around the issues of soil drainage and whether or not to add soil amendments.

  12. Mum is asking me planting advice on an apple tree sapling they just bought. I know hardly anything about fruit tree planting but I am looking up things from trusted sources and running it through my general gardening knowledge filter and sending her info.

    This is actually how I learn most anything about #Gardening. I was not raised around gardeners; I am self taught and now I am teaching my mother.

  13. Yesterday was a seriously foggy and rainy day. My husband and I stopped for donuts at Soons Farms, an apple orchard and vegetable farm in New Hampton, NY. The bare trees reminded me of a Hitchcock movie.

    I am a novice hobbyist, but I have two apples from a much-neglected tree on my late father's farm, which I got on my last ever visit. For now, I will not be able to go back. They are still whole, but I'd like to try getting and starting the seeds.

    Any advice before I google?

    Here's some Jonathan's.

    First is the shady side of the graft on the mainly Gravenstein tree, second is the sunny side of the same branch. The third pic is on the old big tree. My other old but not big Jonathan doesn't have any fruit left on it since it's outside the goose pasture so nothing to chase the squirrels away and it didn't have very many apples this year anyway.

  16. It's APPLE time. That time of year when the whole house gathers around the one apple that grew on our apple trees and we all get a few slices.

  17. I am reading "What's wrong with my feuit garden" by Deardorff and Wadsworth. I am at the picture section to self diagnose what is wrong in your garden. I have ALL the pests- ALL THE PESTs. What am I going to do? I feel overwhelmed and just want to poison bomb my yard. #AppleTrees #FruitGarden #Pests #Overwhelmed #WhatDidIDo?

  18. Four more fruit trees planted now! One more apple and our first three pear trees. We put them in a new spot and the ground there turned out to be much nicer (and flatter) so I think they might do well. #gardening #PearTrees #AppleTrees #slaithwaite

  19. Left it a bit late but was able to find three compatible pear trees and another apple tree compatible with my others. Apologies to future me who will have a week's notice to dig four holes! #gardening #AppleTrees #PearTrees

  20. Some time ago I posted about some seedlings that I sprouted from lemon seeds harvested from a lemon tree inherited when we moved here five years ago. Here is an update showing how the original seedlings are now doing, along with some additional seedling lemons and apple trees similarly sprouted in the hot-water cupboard.

    I haven't been posting much for a while as looking after these few seedlings and my flock of laying hens is about my daily limit.
