That depends on the value of org-show-siblings. 

To ensure that siblings are visible, you can use a simple setting such
as:

(setq org-show-siblings t)

Type C-h v org-show-hierarchy-above [RET] for more fine-grained
customization options.

With org-show-siblings set to t, I see the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Fruit
** Apple
*** Macintosh
*** Crab
    DEADLINE: <2010-04-28 Wed>
*** Golden delicious
** Vegetable
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Best,
Matt
