Fruit Trees
 |
Figs Very Tasty They bare for several months. |
 |
We have four fig trees now. I wrap chicken wire around them before winter and fill it with leaves to protect them from freezing. If they do freeze they just come back from the base. |

Nicole is standing in front of our young peach tree. (2005) Early White Giant is the variety. It bears very large peaches. Behind Nicole, to her right is one of 3 bush cherries. |

This is the best of our 3
apple trees. It bares a very heavy crop every other year. I
thin it severely and it still is loaded.
One of the apple trees was supposed the be a 5 in 1 (peach, apricot, nectarine, and plum) tree. I thought the leaves didn't look right and when it bore apples this year, we found out why. I suspect it has 5 varieties. That's a Manchurian Rose Apricot next to it. It produces the best apricots you have ever tasted. |

We also have a sweet
cherry, pear, and walnut tree.
I'd still like to put in a plum and filbert tree. I planted a filbert tree, paw-paw tree, and persimmon tree in 2008. We lost he walnut tree. |
