That's a really good idea. I was looking at an apple tree earlier this year. I will probably wait for next year as well though. My backyard is shielded from wind pretty well though, as it is surrounded by large mature trees on the east and west, and our house on the north side.

Also, I just noticed that my gardens are getting ready to bloom for the 2nd time this year, so it looks like I'm doing something right! I was a little nervous, especially about my new rose bush, but it has more buds on it than when I got it a month ago. I'm going to be transplanting a bunch of wild raspberry bushes into a newly cleared (of massive weeds) garden area tomorrow. My first strawberries are starting to ripen too.
