Great mountains rose up and just outside our window was an amazing panoramic view of beautiful wild country. And in the background I heard Billy Idol's song Start Again! And each time I heard the words "start again" a shiver of excitement ran through my veins like wildfire. It was as if inspiration hit me like one of nature's tornados.

  • Stop Diseases In Trees - If you maintain any pitted fruit trees such as plums, peaches, or cherries, I'm sure you know that those types of trees are much more susceptible to diseases than any other type. While the fruits are delicious, it can be rather hard to live with all of the maladies that can plague the life of everyone who has ever grown one of those types of fruit trees. The main disease that you will hear about the most is known as "Brown Rot". This is a fungus that attaches to many of the leftover fruits after the picking season is over.
  • Planting Your New Tree - When you have decided on which kind of fruit tree you would like, and where you would like it, you can finally start to plant it.

One thing that you have to consider is its proximity to a building, electric line, side walk, or any other thing that might disrupt its growing.

  • Having Your First Tree - Almost everyone's first tree experience has some embarrassing events. Nobody can be an expert right away; we all make mistakes that sometimes haunt us for years afterwards. Some of us make worse mistakes than others, though. I think that if there was an award for being the most naïve person to ever attempt growing a tree, I would win. When I decided to plant a tree of my own, I had the perfect spot in mind. There was a gap between my house and my fence of about 5 feet. It was probably the least traveled area of my whole lawn, and I thought it could use something to spice it up. Maybe if I provided some lovely shade, it would become more used by my family. I envisioned a little picnic paradise in the shade, where my family could go just to be with each other and nature.
