Just for interests sake mainly for mine anyway......when i say we are pruning thru winter chances are it will be the stonefruit, eg apricots, peaches nectarines and plums.
Anyways today i found a report of the actual number of trees on our 17 acres of land....
Here goes
Lemons tangelloes and washington navels total number of trees 180.
6 varieties of drying apricots a total of 846 trees.
Peaches a total of 8 trees (lol)
Pears total trees 201
Pink Lady, Rosy Glow,Granny Smith and Lady Williams we have 423 trees.
Cherries there are 72 (although water is turned off on these due to water restrictions)
Sultanas there are 648 vines (water turned off here too)
Market apricots we have 565 trees that is picked fresh into a bin and sent to market every day fresh.
Black amber plums there are 500 trees sent to market everyday fresh too same with the nectarines:)
Fire Pearl nectarines there are 820 (now thats a big patch LOL)
