Owner's comments
This is the first year I noticed some scab on the tree and the few little fruit it set. This is the tree's first whole year in the ground. It sits across from a Gala Apple and a Turkish Fig. We have a Anna Apple in the front yard along with a Granny Smith.Season records for this tree
