The property came with a dozen or so enormous (>6m / 20ft) apple and cherry trees planted about a century ago and all but 3 of them are barely alive, so this spring I've cleared some space and added:
Assuming most of them survive I'll be set as far as fruit I can grow in my zone are concerned. Well, I could use 2-3 asian/american hybrid persimmons to have a full set, but they are very hard to find and expensive - I'd have to pay more for 2 than I've paid for the 40+ listed above..
