Unless the June drop depletes them, there should be a good crop from these 5 trees.
Is this a suitable set of picutres or would you like me to go and photograph some radishes?

Post by: Palustris on June 14, 2004, 21:25:18: First one is Rev Wilkes which only crops every other year, but 1lb apples. Next is Sunset I think, then possibly Bramley and the red one is Greensleeves and the last one is Crown Gold, but I could be wrong . Our Discovery has fewer than normal applets this year too. It is a very early flowering type and it was, cold, windy and dry. the bees were not about.
