Hello Everyone,
I just purchased a new home that has a ~0.5 acre field below it on a slight slope. I hope to make the field a clover plot with medium red clover, alsike clover and aberlasting clover by frost seeding earlier next spring (green textured rectangle). The former owner had planted pear trees (purple circles), but I don't know what kind (I found one pear 3 weeks ago that was still on the tree and about golf ball sized and dull green). I was thinking of adding some apple or crabapples (blue triangles), but want advice on easiest to grow/maintain. I am within driving distance of Blue Hill nursery in north Central PA and I believe in zone 5. Thanks in advance for your help. Any tips would certainly be appreciated, as I am very new to the fruit tree game.
