While pottering about the garden today I noticed how well the summer fruits are forming
 |
| Figs |
 |
| Kiwi about to blossom |
 |
| Blueberry in bloom |
 |
| Plums are forming |
 |
| Gooseberries swelling |
 |
| Redcurrants swelling |

| Blackcurrant forming |
I think they are further forward than this time last year as we are still in April the fruit is coming on great, promising a very fruitful summer.
never count your berries until you eat them! Frosts predicted here for the weekend- Oh heck!
ReplyDeleteAll looks good so far then. I really want to grow kiwi fruit. Are they difficult or take a long time to come into fruit?
ReplyDeleteMy plant has been there for five years, it was taken from a cutting from my previous house so the plant is about 7 years old and it has been fruiting for the past 3 this will be its 4 year so not long really, if you were to get a more mature plant it should fruit the following year.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't got any Gooseberry's on ours yet, not even a sniff!
