I didn't think I'd get apples this year because it was so warm.

What kind of apple trees are you growing?

Those are Anna, my dad has some that he planted when I was little that we don't know what they are and those haven't broken bud yet.

My mom doesn't like either of those so we don't have them

She does like honey crisp and if my research is correct I should be able to grow those so maybe in a year or two. I planted mine in 2012.

Quote: I wanted some that would produce sooner since we are nearing retirement. I bought 6' trees two years ago and planted them. I was hoping they would produce sooner since they were larger.

I have not tried a honey crisp but I have heard they are delicious.

Mine were about 6' tall when I got them. They flowered the first year.

LOl. They really are!

I am not sure but it kind of looks like thrift. But I could be wrong.
