    Do you have any thoughts of dwarf fruit trees? Where did you get your semi dwarves from?
  • @TheMrsRabbi
    I’m still within my first year of living on 1/4 of an acre, I initially had big plans, got discouraged, but now, after your video, I am more determined and hopeful than ever! Thank you for being such good stewards with what you’ve been blessed with, I pray I can do the same ❤
  • @gardentours
    The shade that those trees give is so nice in the heat of the summer 👍

    Am a new subscriber, but have been gardening since 10 years old so 50 years, even did a Horticulture and Gardening Apprenticeship in the 1980's, have been in New Zealand garden for 32 years, so nice to hear someone who is on a similar path to myself.
