The great old apple tree standing in front of our house is in full bloom! The apple tree is a member of the rose family, and there are more than 7,500 cultivars of the genus, a seemingly endless variety. Some of our trees have white blossoms, like the great tree, and some are pink. the apples we grow are green, yellow and red, and together make a tasty, piquant cider.
