This tree represents that we finally bought the house we rented for 7 years. We have six different varieties on one tree! We'll have to wait a bit for fruit, but it will be well worth the wait.Foodiewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071730074240565916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30577630.post-3767519697480806272012-04-29T07:45:41.114-04:002012-04-29T07:45:41.114-04:00Such a loving story and tribute to your father.

How happy he must be to see the trees planted in his name as he smiles down upon you and the farm. <br />I have special memories of my father concerning the Winesap apple. There was an orchard behind his fathers house on the farm and it had many wonderful apple varieties but my favorite was the Winesap. In late fall we would pick them off the tree and sit beneth it and munch our apples. . .memories, wonderful memories.
