The fruit trees are growing very well indeed and all have fruit on. The Malus Jonagold apple tree has approx 20 apples on. There was more apples but I have took some off so not to over load the tree
The Victoria plum tree has lots of plums on, and I have thinned some out. As I want to discourage biennial fruiting (not a great shot)
The Dennistons superb although had lots of flowers on has only about 6 plums on. but what is on there, are looking good
Weather report - Really hot and Sunny all day ,Wakefield, England
Of note, checked the beehive tonight with a Pro who will remain nameless. Essentially there was no brood (baby bees), oh shit! So the pro took my hive/colony away and will requeen her for me. I should have the hive back in a couple of weeks. Fingers crossed
Your trees are at about the same point as mine. I love the plum. I was looking at mine to-day and I have several weeks to go till I enjoy them!!! But it will happen soon enough
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that I am not the only one that checks their fruits trees out. I cannot wait to try them.
ReplyDeletehahahaha, way to funny, Some here think i have become a little strange. Actually my big thing is checking for problems. But so far so good this year no problem yet.
ReplyDeletehey, at least I am honest.. LOL. I was telling some of the folks at work today about checking my plums out.. I got some odd glances I can tell you. I expanded on the remark then. LOL. as for strange , thats just a perception.
ReplyDeleteway too funny. I would have looked a little strange at you as well if I heard that you say you were checking out your plums. I am slow at times so I might have missed it!!!!!! Which reminds me I checked mine out this morning!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear it Reg. I hope you were happy with your plums to this morning ;-) LOL
