I showed my husband the two types of pears in pictures this morning with the words: Look how beautiful!

His comment: I don't care what you plant, the lawn tractor has to have enough space.
Shortly after, a low hum: I like it.

The tip was really great. Thanks Yvonne!

There will be no espalier on the house for us!

The plaster, the mess, the crawling.... No, no.... definitely not. Why espalier for fruit trees? I know that for grapes. It was at the shed of the old house from the previous owner. The plaster was severely damaged because of it. Fruit trees don't need espalier, unless you actually use espalier fruit. Alternatively, there are also columnar fruit trees for small gardens. I personally find that better than installing an espalier.

So a properly mounted espalier actually does not cause any damage to the plaster, or at least I wouldn’t know how. It’s just a wooden lattice that is hung on a few wall anchors. Well, vines have those feet, and vines also squeeze into cracks in the plaster or under roof tiles and "break" everything. Fruit trees don’t do that. With the espalier, it wouldn’t necessarily be about the yield for me; I think a well-maintained espalier beautifies the house.

Also remember that some trees prefer certain soil types more or less. We have a large, approximately 60-year-old copper beech (a mutation of the common beech) in the front yard. Our soil is very sandy and dry. It doesn't like that at all and is experiencing considerable drought stress, which is not good for it. Since we like the tree very much anyway, we will now water it separately. But that will be another topic.

For us, it will definitely be an apple tree, I think something like that belongs in every garden. (Sofern man den Platz aht)

But these weeping pears and serviceberries also look very nice.

So we also have 700 sqm of land and on it about 20 oaks, various conifers, birches, maples, lilacs, goat willows (bee pasture!!), a row of trembling aspens in the south, a row of hornbeams in the north, and so on, and I plant several more trees every year. Cherry, apple, 2 walnut trees, hazelnut tree, 2 firs, serviceberry, winter cherry, etc. I already have. The property is practically a forest, tree after tree. I can't understand these bare new building plots. When I look outside, I only want to see green. When my little trees grow bigger accordingly, a few others that are rather useless will fall instead. But only the small ones. You can't replace such a huge old tree within this lifespan.
What will still come are chestnuts, more hazel trees, and maybe one or two more walnuts. My squirrels are hungry, and especially the winter guests are incredibly expensive (25 kg of walnuts disappear just like that). But I also like my oaks; I have both - sessile and pedunculate oaks.
By the way, the hawthorn smells absolutely wonderful and doesn't stink a bit!
Although there may be a lot of trees, they do not take light from each other at all. The slope is so steep that they practically grow in terraces and do not shade my photovoltaic system.
For that, we have no lawn - saves mowing.

If you want an extremely fast-growing beautiful blue-flowering tree, then please take a look at the Paulownia. That would be something else!
