It is time to start picking apples.  We have a few!!!  

 

I didn't save the identification tag when we bought this tree, but I seem to recall that the apples are Rome.  Whatever their name, they are tart and sweet and crisp.  Good qualities in apples, I think.  We eat them with our salads, bake them into pies, and make apple sauce like Momma did.  Oh yeah, and there is Ruby Whitman Apple Cake too.  That recipe is in the recipe section.  

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
