At Home On Paradise Cove: And then, having nothing else to do, I planted an orchard ...

And then, having nothing else to do, I planted an orchard ...

7 dwarf and semi-dwarf fruit trees chosen for the Pacific Northwest from Raintree Nursery.

2 apples and 2 pears so they will cross pollinate ... the cherry, plum and peach self pollinate.

Enjoy!

Nice! We also added 2 more trees this spring - a peach and a nectarine. Already have 3 apples, 2 cherries, 2 plums, a persimmon, mulberry and 2 walnuts - just have to wait to see them producing. Hope yours will take off nicely!

Paradise Cove

"When the lights go off, the stores close-up, the politicians go quiet, and the world as we know it ends, I’ll be in the garden. Grab a hoe and come along. Make whiskey from an old copper still, pick fruit from trees you nursed, pull a weed, can tomatoes on a wood stove, smoke a venison loin, light a pipe, sit down against a tree trunk and we’ll talk about literature and the stars. There’ll be plenty of room. And about that other thing. What is it you kids call it? …multitasking? Yeah, that’s it, multitasking. …there’ll be none of that shit." (author unknown)
