Still a few days away from blooms. Seem to be about ten days behind this year. No frost in forecast!

Hey Sandyboi - That chestnut crab’s a beaut! I’ve got two no where near that size. That’ll be awesome! Will yours throw a bushel?

If we get rain, yes. The apple load last year bent the leader. I could not reach it to thin it.

Full Bloom here in Northwestern Vermont is one week later then usual. Here is a pictures of Franklin trees planted last spring. I will of course remove the flowers/fruit each year until year four to allow these trees to grow better size and structure for future cropping. The Franklin is the most precocious bearing tree that I have had the pleasure to grow.
