Over 100 trees of all varieties were planted were planted by volunteers at Pyramid Lake on Saturday Nov. 6th. including pomegranate, persimmons, apples, nectarines, almonds, cherries, pears and others. Some of the trees even had multiple grafts on them, allowing them to produce more than one variety of fruit from the same root mass. It was explained that the trees are mature enough to produce fruit by next year, but that it would not be advisable to allow the fruit to set until two to three years pass. This technique will create less stress on the young branches and enable the tree to become strong for the future.
