i am interested in growing apples but the trees i have are from quite old varieties and the fruits are not pleasing to the eyes..i would like to get a few modern trees,preferably with fruits very much like the ones in the market...any one with ideas on where to look? will appreciate.

Also check with the nearest prison.

mine took around three years..though quality is wanting.i planted two feet plantlets,dug them out the way we do with banana suckers.

Bought some plants from Drive- In Area before the supper highway construction. Only on survived and now i have started enjoying the fruits.

I have planted them somewhere off Kamiti road..so kiambu area climate is okay. But the birds starts munching them early and i have to cover them with polythene

There is some sort of nursery hapo mbele ya mamba village,they have grafted apple seedlings which they assured me they do well,they have planted a few around the same place and they are doing good...

any place above 1700 metres above sea-level will do well.
But my plants are in ruiru..about 1570m asl..so more nutrients and water are required.

the best place would at nyahururu,eldoret,molo,limuru etc

Fruit farmer grows profit by grafting rare apple variety

After reading this story,does it mean that apples may do well in tea growing regions?

That link cannot be displayed.

Does anyone have contacts for this Miagayu-ini guy?

Wouldn't mind buying a few seedlings.
