Marty Posted May 12, 2021 Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) Happy hump day, everyone. It's been a sort of cool day here, with the occasional short shower. But I did manage to plant one of my apple trees. The other two can stay in their pots for this summer at least, as they were only grafted onto their rootstocks last year. I've also sourced a pear tree. The variety is Conference, which the nurseryman tells me does very well in this part of the country. Conference is actually my favourite pear, so I'm really happy about that. It's still in its pot, but he told me he only potted it in March, so has advised me not to plant it out for at least a few months yet, to let its roots settle down. I asked his advice on staking it, and the apple trees when I plant them out. He suggested two 6 foot (1.8 metre) canes put in diagonally from each side. So that's what I did with the Bramley Seedling cooking apple tree that I planted today. Edited May 12, 2021 by Marty Tidying up 4

Normal temps for this time of year is low 80's/28° it's currently 54/12°. I'v heard of Bramley apples but don't know if they're available here. 3 1

dughlas Posted May 12, 2021 Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) More than 40% of the gas stations in this area are out of fuel because of the Colonial pipeline shut down. Fortunately I had filled my tank a couple of days ago and mum's car has a mostly full tank too. If things go as expected the pipeline will be functioning again by the end of the week and another week should see things mostly back to normal. Until then we'll not be making unnecessary trips in the car. Edited May 12, 2021 by dughlas 4
