Little bare this time of year

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Very interesting shot and I wonder why the rope is tied to the rocks.

[Nancy Holte]

I'm looking for the "rest of the story" on the rocks. Clearly Terry @sarasdadandmom missed that. :)

[Sue Wilde]

It looks like the rocks are to try to make the tree grow in a special direction...fascinating shot

[Call me Joe]

Hope no one 's planning to hurt themselves-

[Maggiemae]

The leaves are just coming - where is the blossom? I agree with Sue @swilde

[Leana Niemand]

how interesting!!!

[Catherine W.]

Some sort of pulley system? Interesting!

[KWind]

Curious shot...makes me wonder about the rocks.

[mervyn hobbs]

Nice to see but Kerri everbody is wondering about the rocks.

[Jo Ann Bellone]

So Kerri, is this a rock garden :-)

[alia_801]

I like all the different shapes in the branches :)

[Carole Imes]

Interesting! Was wondering about the rocks and seems like @swilde may be right.

[Dione Giorgio]

Very nice. Love how they tie down the branches by weighing them down with the stones.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

Fascinating photo! What type tree is this? I am like the others. Would live to know the deal on this

Please do explain?

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Rock trees? I don't think I've ever seen them before- Hmmmm?!

[Danny Davies]

Really lovely. Would they be cherries.
I read a story of a couple bought some land in Arizona, no soil to talk about. He started gathering all types of organic waste off his land, and kitchen waste to compost, which he used to grow flowers and vegetables. you could read about it on the web. just type... composting.. good luck. :)

[Pyrrhula]

Great pic to show you orchards. A bit different of ours. What fruit trees are this ?

[Lisa Pouncy]

Waiting for spring xx

[Phil Howcroft]

look forward to the follow up shots kerri of blossom and fruit

[Constance Brinkley]

This photo is captivating due to the rocks hanging off the trees... creates a lot of questions and interest! Ha!
