What trees and shrubs of my garden perfectly coexist on six acres: apple, pear, apricot, chestnut, cherry ...

My mother says that every tree in the garden should be beneficial, that is, fruit. A birch cannot bring apples or pears, which means that it should not be on the site.

One day, some kind of wind blew the seeds right up to my porch. In the spring I see: a very tiny tree, 7-8 centimeters high. The leaves are small, sticky. The hand did not rise to pull it out and throw it away. A year later, she transplanted a grown birch tree behind the fence of the site. Such a beauty has grown in five years!

A chestnut lurked next to the currant bush. Once I mentioned that I dream of a chestnut near my house. The children brought the sprouted fruit of this tree as a gift. The sprout was quite small. Now the tree is about four years old.

We got this amazing tree from the previous owners. I call it plum cherry.

I don’t know how it happened, but plums ripen on one branch, and cherries on all the others.

The oldest tree in the garden is the apple tree. She is about 40 years old. This spring the "old woman" had to be well treated. Two huge hollows in the trunk were simply killing the tree.

In gratitude, the apple tree blossomed violently, and now it is still covered with small apples. You can open a window, stretch out your hand - and here it is a fragrant miracle!

We bought a pear seedling in the nursery.

The first fruits appeared only in the sixth year: 18 pieces. I didn't count this year. I see that a lot. Now the pears are dark burgundy. When ripe, they will be amber yellow with a red barrel.

I call this raspberry "Alla Vladimirovna". An elderly literature teacher brought me some twigs. The berries are large and tasty. Fruiting until autumn.

I can talk about my garden endlessly. On my ten hundred square meters, sea buckthorn, currant, linden, apricot, cherry are also growing.

Each tree, bush has its own amazing story. Maybe next time…
