OK, Don, I apologize. For the first season I'm seeing Fujis with a high percentage of flower buds on the tips of small wood. I don't know if I'd categorize them as tip-bearers as they generally grow up here, but if they looked every season the way they do this one I would. Most years I've seen majority of flower buds on the 2-year wood. I'm wondering if they don't have differnt bearing habits in different climates.

I have a Fuji on my property whose obnoxious vegetative growth got so on my nerves I trained it to a weep. Now it's a spur bearer and has given me apples 3 years in a row which is pretty good. Fujis tend towards bienniel bearing here. Getting apples from such weak wood makes them size a bit small, but they aren't lacking in sugar.
