I planted a crab apple tree many years ago, probably in the 1990s. I wanted a small tree for my backyard. I thought a crab apple tree would give me a bit of shade and beautiful blossoms in the spring. I don't know what variety it is, but the fruit is a beautiful light green.
Hmm, what holiday is coming up soon? Thanksgiving, but I have not seen any Thanksgiving decorations anywhere. Halloween is over. Oh yes, it is Christmas! We have been bombarded with Christmas specials since July.
Each fall, I plant a variety of bulbs to enjoy in the garden each spring and to ensure plenty of cut flowers. But I never plant tulips or other bulbs that need to be chilled in our mild climate.
