Hi! You have surprize variety?
I have several apple varieties already with flower buds almost open… most of them for the first time!
No, not Surprize…at least I don’t have anything that goes by that name…some things have been renamed
(Such as ‘Firecracker’, also called “Bill’s Red Flesh”–which I have–and it might squeeze a bloom this year).
I’ll have blooms on Odysso, Niedzwetzkyana and Redfield. If I get other red fleshed that bloom this year, I’ll be delighted, but those are the only 3 I am certain at this point.
I do have several on B-9, B-118, and G890 that may ‘surprise’ me with blooms–2019 grafts.

That’s great! Regarding surprize variety maby was renamed, but it’s so diferent looking that it will be recognized.
I love Weisteria. I thought it is vine. Can it be trained to a tree form?

Hi! Yes it is a vine but can be trained to form a tree…
It is a vine with a main stem that can grow to be very thick like a tree. The ends of the limbs where the new takes place is sometimes dangerous, if planted next to another tree. It takes patience and pruning to create a wisteria tree. It can strangle another tree!

Luis in my brain when i look at all your pictures i think you have a amazing orchard and area but i also think you have started to expand your garden to walkways to the park and other areas!
