Default RE: Need some info for this one guys

Strutter,
The web is right about the rust spreading to you apple trees and fruit. Cedar treees started growing about 100 yds from my apple trees. It took me a couple of years to figure out what was happening. I removed the cedar and the problem went away. If I were planting for widlife I would still plant the apple trees since the rust did not hurt the quanity, only the rusty colored leaves. I purchased 24 apple trees for $3.00 each on Ebay from a grower in Tennesee, they are doing great. They were 2 to 3 feet tall but a great price. In the second year they are as tall as the expensive trees sold by growers
