Cool picture. Not unhead of. I guess it is most common in warm climates with low chill hour varieties.

I had a few blossoms on a branch of a giant tree a few weeks ago. I keep looking for apples but none yet.

That wasnt meant to mean that it cant happen in other situations. Just that I have heard it mentioned many times before and it was indicated to be a result of what I said.
