I moved to my place in late '02. Come spring, I put in 2 apple trees, a peach and a sour cherry. I need to replace one of the apples that never took, so I'm figuring out my order. Have you found it to be worth the work and expense to plant a dozen or more fruit trees? Seems like it would add value to the property, certainly add to the beauty, and IF they bear fruit, would save on the food bill, including treats for critters. Problem seems to be that oftentimes the darn trees just don't bear well, or are a mess from bugs and diseases. I would like your feedback, please. (I order from Schlabacks here in NY, trees are started here in my zone).
