I had a bit more in-depth conversation with my wives Grandmother today, she owns the farm I'm installing the orchard on that hurt family homesteaded.
The old crab-apples I had mentioned before we planted by her great grand father, James McClellan in 1884. There used to be 6 trees, 3 were gone by the time I arrived on the property in 2010.
(#1) Russet Crabapple
.
#2 Red Crab (not quit fully blushed yet).
#3 Farm Crab (Green) could be of yellow delicious decent.
So these are 132 years old, crazy! Unless a freak wind happens I believe the red crab will last the longest as the other 2 will probably be gone completely in the next 10 years. What a testament of Gods creation.
