Aren't apple blossoms pretty? Of course, this year, between me and the wood-peckers, it's really kind of a miracle that we even have an apple tree, so these few flowers are just a nice bonus. I gave it a pretty severe pruning at the end of it's season last fall. It was too heavy on one side, and way too tall, so I figured I'd just give it a hard pruning and it could just re-think how it's going to grow. Hopefully, it will do just that - grow. Because right now, it's got a pretty severe "crew cut" look going.

Sorry apple tree. I'll try to refrain from "helping" you this year.
Pretty cool pruning job there. It looks like Sally the curtain lady's
nectarine tree.
