Thanks, Lynn, I agree both w/the level of production and how beautiful she is. Although the sun’s spottily coming out now, since I posted, we had an intense downpour, and her bracts were coming down interspersed with driving slants of fine rain. Thanks for urging me on; 4 posts in 5 days is a little above par for me 🙂

Congrats on Princess Emily, MD! She’s a beauty and I need to find out where the nursery is you bought her from. My back yard has been calling to me. I have lost two of three old apple trees that I loved when I bought the house. The third is hurting, but I refuse to let her go.

Thanks, Martha! She certainly is that! I bought her through Singing Tree (https://www.singingtreedetroit.com/), who planted her (but I could have bought directly) from Milarch Nursery (https://milarchnursery.com/) in Lyon Township. Perhaps Singing Tree could help save your third apple tree.

Thanks for the honor of letting us pay homage to Princess Emily in person. She is quite divine.

Thanks, Susan. That she is! And, I’m worrying about her as the baby she is . . . Too dry? Too wet? Did I pick the wrong spot for her? Does she get too much afternoon sun?
