Dwarf fruit trees are a new idea?
And here I thought that bright idea was older than I am. (And I am getting up
there.)
The specific varieties might be new; and/or getting specifically peaches down
to the size they want might be new, I suppose; but the article is very odd in
that it seems to think that the whole idea is new.
