Yaaaaaaaa! That's awesome! How old is it? Generally with things like apples, pears, and other fruit trees, they get better with age. So it will have more and more as time progresses! Exciting times in your yard! 😻🍎 61 $DEGEN

I think it's around 4 years old now? I have no idea if it always takes so long to get some fruit? We got another apple tree last year, and that one already had some flowers this year! So I was amazed they both bloomed for the first time, to be honest. Thank you 💜

That's awesome! Yeah I think it's been a fantastic year for apples, pears, that kinda fruit tree. Maybe it's encouraged trees to fruit earlier than in other seasons! Hope you get a great bounty!

Let me be the jerk to tell you then: a lot of experts tell us to pick off forming fruit in the first few years of trees... 🙈 It helps them divert energy into establishing themselves rather than on fruiting. Honestly though, I couldn't bear to do this myself and never have.

What? First few YEARS? 😂🙈 No, I'm going to be stubborn and let them grow. 🥹

lol, sorry! Just sharing the common advice. Never followed it myself either. Honestly, just take good care of the trees, water profusely those first 1-2 years, and I think they'll be just fine. Especially if not in a really tough clime.

Hmm, we'll see what happens. I'm gonna risk it, haha. Can't bear to get rid of them after finally having some fruit, lol! :)
