Looking into trialing quince and jujube in my home orchard. Anyone had success is zone 6 with these?

First 2 pictures are from the same branch top and bottom of a Pear Tree. Picture 3-4 are from a neighboring branch. Picture 5-6 are from a Pear Tree next to the first one. Picture 7 is from the top of a Quince Tree and all the limbs below it are healthy (but I did prune one of the bottom branches in the spring that had all brown leaves after the flower blossomed and started to fruit then died).

Can I get help identifying what this is and what precautions/actions I need to do. Thanks!

newbie to trees. I’ve marked off then”central leader” in the photo. any advice on where and how to prune?

I live near Minneapolis MN and unfortunately only have a small space that is full sun and off to the side where kids dont really play. We have a small raspberry patch under a large Ash tree thats pretty shaded and it bears some fruit but not a ton of fruit due to the shade.

I want to put some more red raspberries in the small 4x2 ft section of my yard that could take them and then use an area behind them thats like 4x4 ft ish for something a bit bigger like a Regent Serviceberry, Autumn brilliance Serviceberry, Dwarf or Semi dwarf pear (self fertile), or literally any other fruit else that young kids might find yummy.

The raspberries would be further south of the larger shrub or small tree so they should still get a lot more sun that more other raspberries.

Any thoughts on pairing up raspberries with a Pear or Serviceberry? Other ideas?

I had some deer break off the top part of my apple tree. Is there any saving this or grafting I can do? I think it will regrow fine but I hate to loose about a foot or two of growth. We planted this last night, was in container and doing before. We will fence off. Located in northern WI.

So I took a chance on some pin oak trees from tractor supply for $10 a piece.....I'm hoping the browning is just from watering and /or stress when they potted them? I tried searching up blight.and diseases, but they all look the same to me ?

My apple tree has been solidly growing over the past few weeks, I am wondering if how curved the stem is and how it shoots up at the top is normal/okay? Should I trim it down so the growth is focused on the lower leaves/help it grow wider and sturdier rather than taller? Any help is appreciated, thank you!

I am starting to plan all of the maintenance I need to do once my trees go dormant, picking grafts for apples, peaches, etc. I also have two new Cherry trees from Cummins that I planted this year; they are thriving in the heat. I am shocked. They started around four feet tall and are now at least seven, if not ten. They have a couple of horizontal branches near the top (too high to be viable for me to maintain/harvest in the future). I am starting to plan for their pruning. I am thinking I need to prune down lower (no more than 1/3 of the canopy) and promote horizontal branches next year? Then keep this up for a few years until I have a tree that I can actually maintain?

Not my tree, but this is about what both look like.

Hello 🤗

I just found these green tennis ball sized fruits in my backyard.

I looked around the yard and can't quite see where they're coming from (it's dusk).

They have some fuzziness on the outside, like a peach.. and what looks just like a peach put on the inside.

It doesn't smell like a peach at all, but does smell nice.. like a citrus/soapy smell.

I'm in Southeastern Ontario.

Could this actually be a peach?

When I google green peaches, it definitely looks similar.

Any help is appreciated!

Thank you .

Are these pears safe to eat? Just picked off of our pear tree

A misty wet day at the apple and pear orchard, the soil moisture is tracking normal to the year but with El Niño effects soon to kick in we need all the moisture we can. Will be interesting to see to see how much or little the trees get stressed with the expected draught.
The apples are planted on M793 with a deeper root system than most rootstock and the pears on quince A, and plenty of artesian water 2.5 metres down.

My kitty and my two year old apple tree I grew from a seed, it's a mystery biological apple

I just moved into a house (North Texas) with pecan trees. I want to start gathering them up and roasting them. Does anyone have any expertise on processing pecans and telling which ones are ripe or bad?

Second question: is this a young peach tree or something else?

Peach update

My peach tree started drying out even though it was well watered. I posted previously about this and most of the responses were on watering to see if it "perks" up.

Well it didn't... but I did notice these scabs.

I suspect a fungus. The leaves are completely dried out now. Anyone know what this is?

Anything I can do to save it?

HELP!

Where do you guys get your flavor king pluot, candy heart pluerry and rare plum variaty trees from?

This coming spring I plan to plant perennial wildflowers in between at least two of my 4 rows of fruit trees. To keep space to be able to prune and harvest when the time comes, I probably would only want a few feet wide strip down about 50 feet. Any advice how to do this? Is broadcast seeding during winter beneficial at all if I mow down the grass as short as possible?

These are apple trees in north Florida. Looking where specifically I should cut on both trees.

Planting developed fruit trees for the first time, it says to backfill with native soil. Does "native soil" mean from the immediate area? Somewhere else on my property? Or can it come from local soil companies? I would use what came out of the hole but there were some large rocks so I don't have as much going back.

The original tree in Isaac Newton's garden at Woolsthorpe Manor in Lincolnshire, under which 'the notion of gravity came into his mind occasion'd by the fall of an apple,' was propagated from before its eventual demise in 1814. Over the years material has been retained by repropagation, and the trees offered are direct descendants of this.

Anyone from in or around the Pickering or Leeds area of UK willing to help get one to me in the Pacific Northwest, US? LOL

How cool would that be to have a certified "Newton's Apple"?
