I am completely new to fruit tree gardening, having planted my first tree a couple of weeks ago. It is producing leaves which are in the process of opening, but I notice a fine, grey dusty coating on the branches, which I can scratch off with a fingernail. Is this normal, or do I need to worry about my first apple tree?
Which do you think of the English orchard trees is the best for long-lasting and beautiful blossom? (White or pale pink)
We have an orchard like yours and now want to do an avenue of 10 trees (5 each side). We have decided to go for just one variety in an attempt to get an entire blossom avenue - but want it to flower for as long as possible!
As its chief raison d'être is ornamental, we aren't too bothered about the fruit...
