Stan, a good friend, and I were walking in the garden the other day. He asked “Is that an apple tree?” and pointed to a tree that was about 600 mm (2 ft) tall. It was jam-packed with fruit (over twenty). I told him that it was a fairly young apple tree. He was amazed at the amount of fruit on it and asked me how it had so many apples. Was it a special type of apple tree?
