Irish peach apple tree thriving!

-

 This is an Irish Peach apple tree, its from a scion that I grafted onto a new mm106 rootstock 2 years ago and propagated it. I got the cutting material from Florence Court Enniskillen. They have one of the best selection of Irish variety apple trees in Ireland. Florence Court is also home of the original Irish yew tree. Lots of heritage Irish tree stuff going on here at this special place.


This pic of the Irish peach apple tree was taken yesterday at our new Lisnabreeny community orchard. The site is very exposed and is roughly 170 metres above sea level. Its interesting to see what variety of apple trees do best in these types of conditions. As you can see though, the Irish Peach seems to thrive here.


At this orchard we have around 300 Irish apple trees and about 20/30 different varieties, with many more to add this winter which are propagating right now.


So many of the trees are thriving here, we did loose about 20 trees out of over 300 planted, but thats not a bad survival rate. 

This year we are planning on planting another 100 Irish apple trees or so to fill up the lines where we ran out of trees last year.

This place is going to be something special in the years ahead, providing food for the community and nature.


While many on here are getting caught up with the madness of the world that they cant do anything about we are planting fruit forests.


Still I haven't scrolled once on these social media sites in the past 5 days or so and its so liberating. I haven't read any comments either or been interacting. I put my post up and get out and connect with real people in the real world.

Honestly guys this place is the ruination of the mind. We have no idea who we are talking too or aligning with.

I see so many influencers go on here and call out all the negative comments, making a big deal of them. If you went into a mental asylum and they started saying negative stuff to you, you'd never think anything of it. You'd just think god help them.

But why on here when you have never met the person do we get so entangled with their madness when they say negative things.


These social media sites are driving people insane. Its an ego trap, they are perfectly designed to mess with our egos. Like I seen a guy on here that I follow, he had a run in with someone that said something that annoyed him on his page. He then went and tracked the person down at their work, videoing the whole scenario. I just thought to myself, wtf!!! Go plant a tree. 

What are people letting themselves get caught up with in this toxic cesspit.


Go plant some trees guys and be that much needed positive vibration. Its the only antidote. 


Peace and love

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with ...

Onlyfans definitely gets some attention!

 From I've been saying that I'm on Onlyfans I've a lost a few hundred followers on my main phantom planter Facebook page. And the posts on it have a attracted many negative comments from people who seemed to know alot about life story and phantom planting antics, these are people that have been reading all my previous posts in depth and have never commented once before as I do read nearly all the comments and show my gratitude and if its a negative comment I just give them a hug. But it just shows you how many people are reading your posts with venom, just waiting until you put a foot wrong then give off. Then they announce they're departure commenting "Unfollowed." Look guys I'm really not going to lose any sleep over it and its certainly not going to distract me from my mission and soul purpose. I very rarely give my attention to negative comments on here or even get in a debate with. I would much rather give my energy and attention to people who are sup...
