Giant fruit trees

[jcguarneri]

Doesn’t it always seem the neglected ones in someone’s front yard or an apartment complex do best ? There was/is a massive apricot tree growing in Manhattan, KS when I lived there. Set huge crops of small but tasty fruit every year I was aware of it. Most of which ended up on the sidewalk. It always seemed to ripen the full crop the week I would be out of town for the annual conference.

I miss this beauty from when I lived in Kansas: (google street view link) Fruited massively every year, small delicious apricots. Somehow always managed to miss peak ripening as it went from not quite ready to all on the sidewalk in about a week.
