50 year old apple trees
« on: May 31, 2023, 05:21:54 PM »
Thought you guys might find this interesting. The area I live in is an old apple orchard and I still have some of the original trees on the property. Probably somewhere over 50 years old.

Very cool! My son has two King apple trees that are over a hundred years old. With careful pruning, they can live and produce apples for a very long time.
