There are walnut trees with little fruit, pear trees with nearly no peas on them (just as in our back yard-it seems the weather was too cold for bees when they were in blossom and we forgot to hand-pollinate them...), and apple trees with plenty of small sour apples. It is a pity that no one takes care of those trees as they would need a good cut and also the fruit just fall down in fall and attract a lot of wasps... But it was a nice part of our walk and I thought I'd share a few pictures taken with my phone.
Not much fruit here either this year. Lots of figs and grapes, but very little else.
ReplyDeleteGive me fresh figs and I don't need anything else :-)
DeleteThat's interesting. My walnut tree has a lot of tiny nuts, my apple tree in the ground is covered but the one in the pot has none.
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting, too. What is different between the two tow apple trees besides the pot around the roots? Perhaps the pot got too small?
DeleteSounds like a nice walk. We have almost no fruit this year due to the weather but our hazel nut tree is laden! Have a good week. Diane
ReplyDeleteIt was a nice walk indeed! Glad there is no hazelnut close to our house - I got allergic to their pollen (as well as to birch)some years ago and depending on the winter temperatures they start torturing me already in December, the latest in January :-(
