Only 5 million more to fall from the tree and I will be done for this year. 😕

I read somewhere that crabapples are really just very small apples. I also read people will splice larger apple variety branches to the established "crabapple" trees and get super results. I have two down back that price apples the size of golf balls but man they are delicious! I made killer applesauce out of them one year.

They really do make great applesauce. Just have to use a lot more of them.
And crabapple jelly is delicious.

I cut down the three in front of the house quite a few years ago, probably more than 10 years.... the loner in the back yard is gonna go when I decide to drop the coin to have the oak topped or removed.

Same here, front one gone, back yard one works twice as hard to make up for the loss of his partner. One almost has to see it to believe just how many of the "fruits" they produce. What are they called anyway?
