Pear Flowers smell like death and decay.

This is one of our Airlie Rose Apple trees. Give us red-fleshed Apples…. Local variety. Love them.

Looking up from the flower bed “Side Garden” up front. Choke Cherry in full bloom.

Discovered #Today because it’s #TreeCareTuesday and I was in the Way Back pruning Armenian Blackberry in the orchard. It’s threatening to damage a Cherry and our only Quince. Will be emailing the owner in a moment…

On a South facing fence, the Jack Apple is already starting to bloom; way ahead of all the other Apples.

So, too, the Nichols’ Plum trees are blooming.

Mystery Plum on a frosty morning. I made it to the way, “Way Back” this morning. This Plum was discovered when clearing a much larger mature Nichols Plum. This little thing’s first few feet of trunk grow sideways along the ground as it was buried under a fallen branch for a long time. It gifts us with orangish yellow plums.
