I see more Blue Hill crabs in my future.Both of those were planted spring of 2019.
Prepare to part with some $$$ - but gain some good trees!!!!Oh crap. I've avoided this thread forever due to not knowing the title referenced TREES! Glad I finally clicked on it.
Somewhere in this "Fruit Tree" section, there are pics of Galarina that someone in N.Y. posted some time ago. I'll try to go back & find them. The pics were of Galarina apples holding in December, if I recall. If I locate the pics, I'll post the relevant info to look at them.Anyone got some pics of Galarina.
That’s how I feel too.This picture was yesterday. It's a tree on an abandoned home sight. I drive by numerous times a day and it makes me wonder if there's too much of a good thing. Are these mummies doing any good?
Stop and walk around the trees , if you find lots of deer turds you know it's a good thing. I've read some trees have a slow trickle drop and drop mummies up until spring leaf out and the deer readily gobble them up.This picture was yesterday. It's a tree on an abandoned home sight.

The road is too busy and there's not a good place to stop.Stop and walk around the trees , if you find lots of deer turds you know it's a good thing. I've read some trees have a slow trickle drop and drop mummies up until spring leaf out and the deer readily gobble them up.
I've seen that same kind of evidence at a couple trees a few miles from our camp. Whether they drop slowly on their own, or birds of some sort knock them down, tracks in the snow don't lie, of deer visiting all winter long. Those apples hang into March - at least the last few dozen of them do. They produce every year, too. All good for the critters.Stop and walk around the trees , if you find lots of deer turds you know it's a good thing.

I’m still trying to win this contest. I’ve got last years apples still hanging and new fruit being set.

Not on this variety and also not on Golden Hornet. We have a problem in my area that you guys up north don’t seem to have. Most crabs fall too late and most apples fall too early. The solution seems to be applecrabs like Yates. If Yates would hold 2 weeks later it would be about perfect. I have some other applecrabs coming on that I think will fill the gap. Time will tell.Do enough of those fall that you’re glad you have the tree?
