My macintosh apple tree has many fruit buds on all branches. Why is this? Isin't the tree supposed to be dormant? it is -15 c plus windchill
Gardenlover - I don't know if this is what you are looking for - the section between the second and third chart on the page struck me as being relevant. It is a little "heavy" if you are not familiar with some horticultural esotericism, but it explains concepts enough to be able to plod failrly easily through it. COLD-HARDINESS AND DORMANCY OF APPLE TREES. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? Hope this helps. It really was just a quick scan - I'm a little to hyper right now to really review it. Wolvie
