Orchard arrives today!

More importantly, though, did you ever find some help to get it upstairs?

I watched your video. He has filled two plastic containers. my pots are hand made glazed terracotta . The pots themselves will absorb the excess water as well.

The pots and saucers are gorgeous and I can imagine them going great with the house with rich history. My eye then quickly went to the espaliered apple! That is one beautifully trained tree.

The trees here come with a three year guarantee. If they dies regardless of reason, they will replace it with a tree of your choice .

The town of Anduze where they are made is about 45 minutes from my town . You can go to the poteries and see them being made. They are gigantic hand thrown pots in two pieces. Glued together with slip and more clay, the swags and medallions are applied by hand then at the end are signed. I selected the most traditional glazes. More pics on the way. Heavy work today and Monday.

Mrs. G.,
Saw my Calville Blanc graft having flowers blooming this morning. Thought of you and sent you the pic. Missing you.

Thats the beautiful flower. Even the flowers are a little wonky. My tree came with one apple on it. Today we had a bit of a Mistral, so the wind really picked up but it was 73 degrees out. Pretty much early summer here.
