We just planted two plum trees. They were my birthday present. Planning to plant pears next. I love peaches, but I've never seen a peach tree around here that produced anything but hard, small ones.
Also planted a blackberry vine. I can't wait until they all start producing!
A couple of peach trees are what I want to plant next!
We do have a few wild huckleberry bushes around...they
grow all over the place here. Used to walk down the dirt
road from my house and get up in the bushes to pick them,
but, I don't venture that far anymore since I got a good
case of the redbugs one time!
Timmy, if you had figs preserved the way my mama used to preserve them, you would love them.....that is if you like hot buttered biscuits. You couldn't taste the fuzzy peel. I have never liked a raw fig.
Yes, I think Timmy would love fig preserves!
To hear my hubby tell it, I make a good jar of preserves! lol
I never liked eating the figs raw either because of that fuzzy
peeling....just like I don't like to eat a peach with the peeling!

Is that the orange with red flesh?
A friend gave us some of those to eat this year.
I had never seen any "red meat" oranges (as my
hubby called them. They were good though.
Yes, they can have a very red interior. The deeper into the tree and more shaded the orange, the redder they are. Ones exposed to full Sun will not look much different than a regular orange.
If you like strawberry preserves I have a recipe that taste exactly like strawberries. But I prefer fig to strawberry, but the color is beautiful in strawberry.
This will be the third year for my tree and IF the birds would leave them alone I might get enough to mess with.

Put some aluminum pie plates in the trees, it is suppose to scare the birds away.

I love strawberry preserves too!
Have you ever tried figs and strawberries mixed as a preserve
together? Never tried it, but, have heard it's very good too.
