[RESENT due to my server problems]

A great reference for you is the Fruit Tree chapter of the Master
Gardener Manual, available online to you at
http://ag.arizona.edu./pubs/garden/mg/

Anna is a nice variety because it is acceptably self-pollinating,
although some material I have read suggests it can do even better with
another apple tree, like Dorsett to cross-pollinate. These two are among
the best adapted to the low desert elevations. Please note that
of late we have had unusually warm winters and, if the minimum number of
winter chilling hours is not attained, fruit production will
drop for that year.

Good luck!
