Apple tree pics in the Back40

Some of my young apple trees in the Back40.








This is an Ashmeade Kernel apple tree planted in 2001. It's an English variety known as a superb eating apple.




This a Purdy Apple tree. Found growing wild in the Adirondack Mountains, it's a late season cooking apple.

 
 
This pic shows a limb graft growing nicely.
 
 
This pic show a graft with the tape off healing nicely. The brown "blob" is toilet bowl wax used to keep the graft from drying out until it's healed.
