  6. Pear, apple and cherry trees (all dwarf size) blooming at the same time...

    #urbangarden #Kleingarten #fruittree

  7. Sharing a new Anjou pear tree this #ArborDay weekend. I'm trying for a backyard #orchard following Grow A Little #FruitTree by Ann Ralph.

    Unfortunately, the nursery already psyched me out of the brutal first cut. I regret not doing it just like the book said I would. It's already so much larger in just 10 days. Any hashtags specific to this part of #gardening?

  8. I've been buying fruit trees because finally I'm not renting and I can live that dream. I was just thinking about how's it's an odd buying experience, though.

    For a normal experience, you could go to a local nursery or hardware store and get trees with no info about their strain, or expected output, or eventual height, or foibles, or root stock.

    Or: you could mail order trees with full info... Except for knowing when the tree will ship. You buy a tree AND a strenuous four hour job at some random point in the future! And if you fuck it up with ADHD or life intervening, and you don't do your random heavy labor in time, and the tree dies, you get to buy the experience again next year!

  11. First plum blossom spotted in MY garden, tho not the same tree.

    (That Cherry Plum is covered in fat buds about to burst..)

    Give it a few days, full bloom is likely exactly 3 weeks earlier than last year's (Apr 1st)

  17. If you're interested in #FruitTree #grafting #HandsOn #education, see info below.

    Learn the basic skill and knowledge you need to start grafting and graft your own heritage apple tree to take home!

    This #workshop will describe the reasons for grafting, when to graft, and when to collect budwood. The workshop will be hands on and participants will be introduced to tree terminology, grafting tools and materials, and will be shown various grafting techniques. Participants will get the chance to practice their new skills on spare branches and once confident, do an actual graft. Each participant will be able to choose an apple variety from the heratige collection at Welland Orchard to graft on to a dwarfing rootstock, to create a new apple tree to take home.

    All tools and materials will be provided.

    Be sure to come dressed for the elements as this workshop will be held outdoors.

    Please register in advance:

  18. Some years ago I found a pomegranate tree beaten into submission as a hedge so I took a cutting.
    Rooted it in a pot then transplanted it into the ground in #Riviersonderend [River without End] and it sat stunned for two years then realised that there were no more restrictions on growth and has now started producing fruit despite the 35°C heat.

  22. On December 16, 2025, a photograph of the "Dolgo" crabapple in bloom on April 9, 2025. It bears an abundant crop of red-fleshed and red-skinned oblong fruit. It is also a preferred pollinator tree for the apple tree variety I requested for my birthday. It should arrive bareroot - soon.
