Sinossi
Excerpt from Twenty-Eight Years of Testing Tree-Fruit Varieties at the Cheyenne Horticultural Field Station, Cheyenne, Wyoming: Ars 34-39; October 1962
Regardless of adverse conditions, experimental results indicate that some of the hardy tree fruits can be grown satisfactorily. At the time the Cheyenne Horticultural Field Station was established in 1928, considerable importance was attached to the home fruit garden as a source of fresh fruit and fruit for home processing. The national economy has undergone many changes since that time. There has been growth and evolution of the systems of transportation.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a fascinating experiment conducted at the Cheyenne Horticultural Field Station in Wyoming, documenting the results of a thirty-year study on the adaptation of tree-fruit varieties to the challenging climate of the central Great Plains. The author, a leading researcher in horticulture, uses a wealth of data and detailed observations to paint a picture of the trials and tribulations involved in growing fruit trees in a semi-arid region known for its harsh winters, late spring frosts, and short growing season. The book places this research within a broader historical context, acknowledging the long-standing interest in cultivating fruit trees in the Great Plains and highlighting earlier attempts at variety testing and adaptation. The authorââ â¢s work builds upon this legacy, providing valuable insights into the challenges and successes of growing apples, plums, cherries, and pears in a region where commercial tree-fruit production has historically been limited. The book goes beyond simply documenting the experimentââ â¢s findings, exploring the complex interplay of factors that affect fruit tree survival and productivity. The authorââ â¢s analysis delves into the role of factors like bloom timing, fruit-bud hardiness, pollination, and disease resistance in determining the success of different varieties. The book also examines the changing cultural landscape of fruit consumption and its impact on the importance of home fruit gardens. This book offers a compelling glimpse into the scientific and practical aspects of fruit tree cultivation in a demanding environment, revealing valuable insights into the resilience of certain varieties and the challenges of growing fruit trees in the face of climate and cultural change.
