Noah Appleseed

Some of you may remember this, and how it turned into this:

It had gotten even bigger, but I have trimmed it and not taken a picture lately(this picture is from last summer)!

 

Well, lo and behold, we now have this: 

I have been told by gardening experts that apples are very hard to grow in this region, and that without a second tree (which we have tried to grow and failed!) we would never have blooms or fruit. I was certainly beside myself when I found this little bloom on the tree.

 

Noah has the faith (things hoped for and not seen) that he will see apples on this tree one day, and because of that in itself, I too believe!
