We have an apple tree in our new backyard. It looks to be a great climbing tree, but it has its drawbacks as well.
I doubt that we'll get any full-grown apples off the tree, because they'll all fall off before then. Aaron cleaned up a bunch of them about a week ago, but they're all over the yard again. They also clog up our gutters in a hurry, which caused part of our basement to flood.
They're also very confusing for the dogs. The apples are similiar in size, shape and color compared to their tennis balls. Fetch has been a very confusing time recently.
The worst part is, Aaron doesn't think we'll be able to eat or make anything out of any apples if we do get any, because they'll be infested with bugs. *sigh* I guess we'll just have to wait and see and learn how to deal with the other inconveniences and challenges the tree causes in the meantime.
