Apples - pruning and juice

Late winter to early spring, now it's time to prune, cut and trim the apple trees, I actually do it twice a year, now and one's during the JAS period (July-Aug.-Sept). The Anthropologists in Sweden recommend the JAS pruning and I think it makes sence. During that period it is often much more dry and the trees recover faster after the pruning. Another plus is that it is a more pleasant time to do it, it's not as cold as it is at this time of the year.

Vinteräpplen/Winter apples, the picture is taken in the month of October.

This is one of my favorite, perfect for pies and other food. Matures in September. Unfortunately I don't know the name, do you know by any chance?

Mogna äpplen färdiga att skörda, är det någon som känner igen vilken sort det är? I så snälla hör av dej! Jag skulle bli jätteglad.

Apple tree "in floribus" at Engarn. Äppelblom så ljuvligt rosa.
It takes 2 kilos of apples to make 1 liter fresh apple juice. This is my favorite brand, from Kivik. Kivik is the "appletown" of Sweden. I served this juice well chilled in beautiful crystal glasses on New Year Eve and all the guest were amazed over the fantastic drink and it was nonalcoholic!

Det går åt 2 kilo äpplen att göra en liter färskpressad äppeljuice, har ni prövat dessa absolut underbar juicerna. Jag bjöd på dem på nyårsafton i små vackra selterglas och det blev en "wowvadärdethärförgott" reaktion bland gästerna. Det var nästan att de ville ha den istället för Champagne på tolvslaget!

TYRA

Have a nice day!
