My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

No spray apple trees?

18 years ago

I live in a burb of Kansas City. I would love to find an apple tree for great fruit but which I won't have to put a bunch of sprays on. I don't want to kill all our benificial insects!! We do have native junipers in the area which I know are one host of the dreaded cedar apple rust. Can anyone help? Anyone grow a good apple?
