I planted my Apple Trees on May 3 and 9 out of the 10 have (had) blossoms. They are 5-7'ers from Wolfrath's Nursery. I took some pictures before I took them off this weekend. I am a first time apple tree planter and I'm pleased with how they look so far. One tree probably had 50 blossoms. Might have a pretty good crop of apples next year. I have Dolgo, Haralson, and their Deer Candy hybrids in. Please disregard the backdrop as some of that is cleaned up now. But still have a ways to go.
Good deal, have you had to haul any water back there after first planting or have you been getting enough rain?
Been getting enough rain so far. I can get to 5 of them. The other 5 will be tough to haul water for. We have clay that holds a lot of moisture for a long time. Often it holds too much.
looks great. would like to know how that Wolfrath tree turns out for you. I sat next to that guy at one small show and got to talking to him but never got a tree yet from his place.
Looking good. I got 9 from Burnt Ridge and they have been planted close to Green Bay for 2 weeks and all are budded. Very nice growing conditions so far. Dolgo and Whitney Crabs, Wolf River, Enterprise and Liberty Apples. I have checked into the deer candy trees but have not yet pulled the trigger.
No idea they were great all year. I will give them another week, hoping they are late bloomers but I doubt it.
