Owner's comments

One of the first trees i grafted. It's a bit to cold for it here and I've had to move it twice so it hasnt grown as much as it should have. Its now planted close to a wall for the heat. It seems to be reasonably happy at least. Had a few apples from it the last couple of years but this year (2017) a cold snap ruined all the flowers.
