Record your spring blossom dates
It's spring at last in the northern hemisphere! Please join our Fruit Tree Register and record the blossom dates of your apple trees and other fruit trees this season. You can also see where other fruit enthusiasts are growing the same varieties as you are, and compare growing records.
Fruit trees of any given variety blossom over a period of about 2 weeks. Conventionally the beginning of the period is marked by the opening of 10% of flowers, the end is marked by petal fall from 90% of flowers. Full bloom is usually taken as the date when 90% of the blossom is open, and usually occurs 5-8 days after the first blossom appears.
