Over 10 years ago I joined nafex, and it's various email forums, a large part of my now producing orchard is due to Nafexer's generous help. I currently have 36 varieties of apples ripening (where 12 years ago was a cow pasture).
I have just made up a photo-site http://delsorchard.shutterfly.com/ Do have a look, feel free to question any of the names - mis-labeled scionwood is always a possibility.
The first 3 varieties are unknown (labled "question.46.jpg...) I'd appreciate any help - as this weekend I am ready to offer 2 of these apples for sale! Much of the reason for my orchard is to see what can be grown successfully in Zone 2b/3a - I have about 85 varieties growing. I am more than delighted at how well it's going.
thanks much, Del, NW Minnesota note: if you try the slide show be sure to click 'options' where you set speed and titles to show
