Trees

Last May Ron got me an apricot tree for Mothers Day. I return I got him a plum tree for Fathers Day. The plum tree quickly bit the dust. Luckily Moon Valley Nursery is closing their Chandler Blvd location. So last week Ron went to get a replacement for the plum tree. He came home with a plum tree and a peach tree. So now my back yard looks like a mini orchard. The apricot tree is looking really good. I hope the other trees do that well. I can just imagine how cool it will look in a few years.
When my kids were little my Mother had a huge apricot tree. It must have been 15 to 20 ft tall. My kids loved to over there during apricot season and climb up in the tree and eat apricots. Hopefully my grand kids can have the same memories.

Hang in there fruit trees! It is amazing how harsh the AZ sun can be!
