Apple Blossom

My cute miniature apple tree has blossoms on it! 2 of the flowers are open and it is covered in buds. It is a self pollinating tree so I could move it outside and see what happens. But I know it is best that it not make fruit this year so it can put its energy into growing strong roots and stuff. Should I pluck the flowers off or just keep it inside so it can't get pollinated?



The flowers are really pretty and we're enjoying having them right now.

Please don't pluck the flowers off! They are so beautiful! I can't believe the tree is blooming already!

I agree with Linda. I don't know anything about tiny-tree care, but the blossoms are so pretty!

Sorry, I don't have any idea about plants. I'm learning from you. ;) I just wanted to say I LOVE the lamb picture on your header now. It makes feel all warm and happy whenever I come by and see it.

Thanks everyone. The tree is covered in flowers now, I'll post a picture after I get back from my trip out of town for the weekend.

Deanne - The lamb pictures makes me feel warm and happy too. I put it as my screen saver too.
