time to show some bark


Well its beginning to feel and look a lot more like spring and i decided it was time to unwrap my small apple trees from the burlap winter cover. The burlap helps to protect young and other delicate trees from the worst effects of winter weather and rodent problems. These pictures are a before and after of me unwrapping the trees for the upcoming season. I hope that these trees will really grow this year as the last two seasons have been hard on many fruit trees. I hope to enjoy a wider variety of my own fruit this season but for the next few seasons until my trees mature further many will be in limited quantities.
