Apple Tree Planting

Chris and I bought two apple trees at the UBC Apple Festival this year. We would like to track their progress on this blog.

Both trees are on B9 root stock, so they should be able to grow in planter boxes. We plan to train them to a lattice of some sort and the first pruning should take place sometime this spring.

The planter boxes before the trees. We brought some strawberry plants home from Nelson when we went out there for Thanksgiviner and they live in these boxes too.
