Thread: Well that's a pleasant surprise!

    Well that's a pleasant surprise!

    Last year I planted 2 peach trees. They're young trees, and I didn't expect anything from them for a couple of years at least. I was walking out in the yard this morning with someone, and I found peaches starting on both trees! It's only a few, but I'm taking it as evidence that they like where they are. The pear tree that has been there for a few years is fruiting as well. Now if I could just get the apple trees to show similar results....
