The new trees have had differing results.
The Cox was stressed. First thing it did after planting was bloom. In July. At the end of the last heat wave it dropped 90 percent of it's leaves.
I got extra mulch on it right away and increased water. It has now budded out almost as many new leaves as it lost.
The Chisel Jersey has been fine and stable the whole time. It got extra mulch and water too.
Made second batch of Transparent cider today. Good yield. Only three bottles, so a jug of raw juice in the fridge.
