Edible little apples....
This farmer from Victoria has developed an apple tree that grows little apples....and they're edible... and he's going to bulldoze the lot.

Hi
Thanks for the heads up a great read and I'm still coming to terms that he covered them with nets at his age and smokes as well

Re: Edible little apples....
Hi Melbrackstone,
Thanks for this link. What an excellent article.
I am not sure why but I was/am quite emotional reading the article.
Well written and beautifully captured through wonderful photography.
I am left with admiration for the farmer's work but some melancholy as well.
Time passes.
tic. tic.
Cheers.

Tending bonsai teaches me patience.

Re: Edible little apples....
Agree guys, it was a really interesting story. What I was thinking though....wouldn't it make a great little bonsai with small apples.
Oh well, it seems he's bulldozed his trees, but sold some scions to someone who will continue the strain...
