Apricot Tree

The trees we planted last summer are about ready to be picked



(side note: these are not citrus, they are apricots.) :)

  2. It looks like you need to put a support under that branch. As your oranges ripen, get heavier, it can tear the branch off the trunk. Looking good! Will they be ripe by June? Citrus often doesn't ripen until winter... What kind is yours?
    XOXO

  3. This is an apricot tree. They're just a little bigger than a size of a golf ball. I'm hoping they'll be ripe by the time you guys get here in mid june.

  5. Cassie, you and the crows both!!! Already, we have a bunch of half eaten fruit on the ground thanks to those birds. I've been teaching Maddie and Shelby to 'sick em' when they're in the yard.

  6. That is so exciting! We planted citrus trees last year and a pecan tree. They show lots of promise for this winter.
