Thanks for the reply. Second year with raised beds. Besides standing up, the weeding is a lot less in a confined bed.

Last year we also planted several grafted apple trees. Five branches have been grafted to a piece of root stock. Each graft produces a different apple. The beauty of these unique apple trees is that they will cross-pollinate themselves. The different apples also will bear fruit at different times of the year. This will provide us with apples for a longer period.
