Johnny Appleseed tree


The gardeners note that they got this tree from one descended from a tree planted by the legendary "Johnny Appleseed."

Hi, I was admiring the photo of the Johnny Appleseed Tree. Is it your tree? It seems to be thriving nicely!

I am familiar with the authentic Johnny Appleseed trees that have been grafted from a documented tree planted by Johnny.

Can you tell me more about the location of this particular tree please?

The family that has the tree have created a native plant garden as their yard. They got the tree from a place that said it was one of those grafted from an authentic tree. The local story is that Johnny Appleseed traveled through Virginia. This is on Turner St. a major road here in Blacksburg.
