But, most everything in our yard and garden is the work of my husband. He started his career as a landscape architect and also came from a long line of gardeners. I come from a long line of people who are good at singing, putting on parties and having spirited arguments, but who would have difficulty differentiating between an espalier and an exotic. My job is harvesting and doing something with the produce.<BR/>We actually have two espaliers in our yard- pear and an apple. It's what you need to do when you have a 50x100 lot rather than the nice spread you have.Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15808564803197692384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8649506332427883852.post-68052294202771036722008-08-26T21:22:00.000-07:002008-08-26T21:22:00.000-07:00So jealous of your pear tree.
