Maybe this year?

[Lil Foot]

Maybe this year I might get some apples....

Well, if you are in a deer area the fence around it is a very good start. My neighbor has a nice apple tree. His dogs eat the low hanging ones, and the deer clear out the higher ones. Cracks me up every year.

Have blossoms as well on some apple and wild pear trees this year. Last year nothing. Even the common walnut trees were bare. Too bad you can't eat black walnuts as we still had lots of them.

Plant some rosemary next to it. Deer don't like the smell.

You can eat them but if its all you have you'll probably starve to death before you can crack enough to eat.

Those black walnuts sure are good in homemade cookies

We are hoping for apples and cherries, they already bloomed.
We had to upgrade the fence, they reached over the fence rings last year and ate all the apples!!
The deer here are brutal!

Rosemary doesn’t overwinter in the location where to OP lives.

I had to build a 8.5’ fence around my garden an orchard to keep the deer out.

That one is 6 1/2 foot and if any one of them bambi's gets frisky with the fence I put hot wires on the top!
