Hey Matt
Good to hear the Winter Wildlife Crab is doing good for you. They are my avatar pic.
Hey Paul
Your grafts are looking great for a rookie :cool:. And yes I'll have to pluck that bloom off sooner or later. My B118 grafts are growing the best, but they had the nicest root system. I've also got some grafts on G202 & M7 for my home orchard. Here's a pic of my nursery.
And no that's not snow in the background. My wife's a recycler and brings shredded paper home from the office to compost in the garden.
My Dolgo Crab is in full bloom and our bee's are lovin' it.
Thought this pic was kind of neat. You can see the yellow pollen sacs on one bee from the apple blossoms and I think the other bee's red pollen sacs are from the flowers of the red maple.
