I’m bumping up this thread for a forum member who asked me a question.

Im new to trees, but if you get hot dry spells this is the tree to have. Northerns should have enterrprises like southerners should have arkansas. Let her go n grow

Out of my 50 or so fruit trees, I had/have four AR Black. One is about 15 years old and been producing quite awhile. One has been in the ground for about 6 five years and has not bloomed yet. It was planted with ten other apple trees and is not the slowest of the bunch, but close to it. Had two others, in the ground for three years - planted 50 yards apart - and they both died during a summer drought a couple years ago - the only trees of mine to die that year. I did water them weekly.

They will make an apple here some years with no spray. They will make apples every year if sprayed. They are a late dropping apple, and in the area I live, that means a long period of watering and a long time to protect from the coons and possums.
