  • Apple Anna, 200 Chill Hours Temperate Fruit Dorsett Golden
    Temperate Fruit Apple Anna, 200 chill hours Anna apple is a dual purpose apple that is very early ripening and does well in warm climates. Anna was bred by Abba Stein at the Ein Shemer kibbutz in Israel, in order to achieve a Golden Delicious-like apple, that can be cultivated in nearly tropical areas. Sweet, crisp, ripens in late June. Excellent for eating or cooking Dorsett Golden, 100 chill hours Golden Dorsett produces a medium sized, firm, and sweet apple perfect for eating fresh off the tree. The apples, a soft yellow with a pink blush, ripen in late June or July, and after picked, they can be kept for two weeks if refrigerated. The Golden Dorsett is perfect for Gulf Coast planting. Ein Shemer, 250 chill hours The Ein Shemer Apple produces a pale yellow, medium-sized apple. The apple's sweet, semi-acidic taste is perfect for eating right off the tree or for making into applesauce or pie. At maturity, the Ein Shemer apple can reach a height and width of 12-15 feet. Ripe in July. Fuji, 250-350 chill hours Crisp and sweet, ripens in June, the Fuji apple is a small to medium size fruit with a reddish pink over yellow appearance. Apple trees require well drained soil but will grow in clay or sandy soil. Multi-graft Apple 7 gallon (FBMG does not know yet if we will receive these. Will update soon.) Two or more varieties grafted onto one rootstock. These specimens are perfect for smaller gardens where a variety of flavors and an extended harvest season is desired.

  • Trees to Avoid Planting in the Midwest and Some Excellent Alternatives
    Trees to Avoid Planting in the Midwest and Some Excellent Alternatives Dr. Laura G. Jull Dept. of Horticulture, UW-Madison Trees provide us with many environmental, aesthetic, functional, and economic benefits. Tree selection is one of the most important considerations when a homeowner, nurserymen, or landscaper is deciding what species to grow or plant. Many questions need to be answered including size, location, site characteristics, aesthetic features, pest susceptibility, hardiness, and maintenance considerations. Some trees can become a maintenance headache due to their inherent pest problems or lack of structural integrity. The trees represented in this story have not generally performed well in urban and suburban areas of the Midwest. Some are susceptible to insects and diseases, and some have severe structural problems such as being weak- wooded or prone to girdling roots or included bark formation. Others have cultural problems such as intolerance to high pH, road salt, drought, and poor drainage. A few tree species are invasive and should be avoided near sensitive areas or seed dispersal into woodlands could occur. Some of these trees may do quite well in other parts of the U.S., so my intention is not to apply a blanket statement for all these trees to all situations. Invasiveness and pest susceptibility can vary geographically. The article is based on more than 25 years of field experience and data collected from numerous states’ plant disease and insect diagnostic clinics, and conversations with arborists, nurseries, landscapers, and extension personnel. There are alternative species that can be used and are mentioned here. These alternative tree species have performed well in USDA Cold Hardiness Zone 4b.
