Has anyone had a good Apple crop this year? All I can find in the stores are were small red or red hybrid apples. I have not seen any Golden Delishous apples anywhere.

My trees are too young, but walmart had a lot of choices yesterday.

My trees aren't producing yet. We go to an orchard in Cosby to get ours. They had about anything you wanted e,cept honeycrisp. Of course that's what we wanted. Went with Winsap instead.

We decided since we only got one we would let it go an be free, the birds got it too. I can't figure it out we didn't get any apricots either.

Isn't that where they come from? The apple was on the apricot so I figured the apricots should be on the apple tree which in turn would make.............uh never mind.

I have 2 fruit cocktail trees. My pear makes 3 different pears on one tree. I have peach, nectarine, plum, apricot, and a second peach one the other. Only made plums this year. Theyre gorgeous trees when they bloom.

We probably have a couple hundred trees on the back of the property. Haven't bothered to go look at them...we never pick them...my bad. Guess when ya have 1000 Apple trees it gets too overwhelming and it's not all that special after a few years. The deer eat them. Ya want us to look and see what's out there for you?

Ya know with all those trees it would be real easy to make a bunch of cider, hard cider............that would be putting them to good use.

No time and too much work. More fun to watch the deer eat them. I do pick some in the summer and make applesauce or give them away. Very old trees so apples are spotty but the meat is good.
