Owner's comments
few blossoms in 2012 but did not set fruit--has yet to bear any crop. this pixie crunch, from the same source as my other pixie crunch, is more vigorous and generally healthier. Unlike the other tree it has never shown any signs of zinc deficiency although they are only about 30' apart.Season records for this tree
