Owner's comments

this is a second mutsu tree. First died of winterkill. Waiting to see if this one is hardier. No cropping yet, but tree is in it's fourth year, Winters here are long, have 3 to 6 feet of snow, and temperatures vary, with average of -8 to -15 degrees C., about 10 to 15 days will see -20 to -25 degrees C., and there is usually a damp northwesterly wind off the lakes.
