Apple trees!

Today, literally overnight one burst into bloom and the other looks like it will tomorrow. Grin, YEAH! My apple trees have buds with a few blosoms shining all pink and white. I have one cherry tree that has many blosoms. This is their first spring in my garden. All dwarf with the exception of the one I started by seed last year. It's still growing with putting out new leaves and that's all I expect from it for a couple years. Whootness! (Thats a kid saying today). I'll skip the cherries as they are such a mess but they sure do look pretty! Take a look at the double flower fruits. That have flowers but are sterile. I have a weeping crab apple and a few cherries about trying to extend magnolia bloom and Dogwood and Kousa . Look at Stewardia and Franklinia too. The later go into August here with flowers. Anyone know of a chart with blooming time for flowering trees ? -- Bill Garden in shade zone 5 S Jersey USA My Indian Crab Apple (double flower bloom) is just now opening up. It is so beautiful with it's bright magenta, maroon color. I can a Dogwood but it's had one heck of a life for only being a few years old. So no flowers until it grows quite a bit more. I may have a chart in my gardening book re blooming time for flowering trees. Will post if I do. Donna in WA |
