Nice! Red fruit or yellow fruit?
Fruits are small, red with little lenticels, but I haven’t had a harvest yet.
Raintree sells two cultivars if you’re interested.
Thanks, I have the red one. There are sweeter ones that I am looking for
Let me know if you found others you were looking for. I would be interested too.
Does your tree have any disease? Others have said the Chinese Hawthorn is very susceptible to CAR, but so far, it’s been growing well for me.

Year two - bud graft for nectarine (unk variety - I
call it Bob’s Nectarine cause i stole it off my neighbor Bob’s tree) on apricot last September. Its a very small apricot sized fruit on his tree, extremely sweet and juicy.

V.K.'s Umpqua Italian. Its second year, cleft grafted Apr 2023. Let these grow about 6-7 ft and then trimmed off tips to drive scaffolding. It’ll need pruned more closely next winter to shape it but so happy with how it drove blooming 12 months later.

Sure, I actually know someone has the sweet red one. At this point, I am looking for some affordable rootstocks, Maythorn, or other hawthorne that I can graft better cultivars onto. Of course, I always keep eyes on better or different ones.

We have an abundance of wild plants (or weeds) with similar appearing flowers (but w/ 4 petals) called “yellow rocket”.

Cox’s Orange Pippin on MM.111, open center.
It finally blooms for me this year after summer pruning in 2023 and tying down some branches.

Not a lot of bloom this year, but I hope it’s enough for a decent crop.

Help with IDing these, please?
Local park has a bunch of native plants, some are labeled, some just have “helpful” dedications.
Second one:
Buds, dried out berries(?) and trunk pics.
Third one:
Looks almost like a blueberry?
Last one:
Joking on this one, it’s the pawpaw tree I found with what I thought were dried up fruit buds (they were!) a few months ago. Good to know I can steal some pollen if one of my three seedlings flowers years before the other two.
