Okay, so they have some way to go before they actually become apples... and perhaps having enough for apple pie is wishful thinking. But there is no doubt whatsoever that these apple blossoms are beautiful pink potential apples!
Having never grown apples before, let alone a tropical variety, I turned to Brisbane Local Food and was advised by the super helpful Scarlett that apple trees like a tasty spring feed. Scarlett suggested compost, liquid seaweed and some nice aged manure.
As I was missing several components, what Anna actually got was manure (horse and cow), and mulch.
And of course she has my undying love*.
*Conditional on apple production.
