A new apple espalier. The outrageous sun and heat this past summer, killed the right half of my espalier. Really sad. Buying a new one!

Pretty apples. Do you spray much, or is your climate just good in that disease and bug damage is low?

Thanks! No i don’t spray and never did. My area is an old apple production area, so i think they just like it… no bugs or too important diseases. Just a lot of birds so i have to bag everything!

Got it. Bagging is your secret. Still, nice-colored apples.
