Apple Orchard

We planted a few fruit trees last year. Five to be exact.  We have a Honeycrisp apple, Zestar Apple, and three cherry trees.  Rainier, Bing, and another black cherry whose name escapes me at the moment.

The cherry trees didn't do too well this year but the apple trees did.  We didn't expect any fruit the second year.  But we got a few apples on each tree and even a couple cherries.  Although birds got those.  :-(

The following pictures were taken at the beginning of August.

Zestar Appletree -- looks like it's ready to harvest.
