  1. CW: Food - fruit

    It’s so hard to tell when nashi are ripe and there is such a short window to overripe and alcoholic. 1.5 were lost, but the tree did good again this year.

    And the new wild plum (closest to a blood plum) was also ready to give up its fruit.

    Lost most of the kale to white fly, but also interrupted a stink bug laying eggs - good that I saw and squooshed that!

  3. Looking to grow a specific type of fruit but have limited space? Graft a desirable scion onto a dwarf rootstock! You get the fruit you want, plus the benefits of a compact, potentially disease-resistant tree. It's plant cloning with a twist! #Grafting #DIYGarden #FruitTrees

  5. My two apple trees are infested with these little sods. The big one will probably cope, but I fear the little one won't survive. Nearly all its leaves have been turned to lace.

    Any ideas? #Gardening #FruitTrees

  7. Pears 🍐 have been cherished since ancient Greece! Perfect for fresh eating, poaching, or cider. Try espalier growing—training trees flat against walls for beauty & space-saving. #Gardening #FruitTrees #Espalier #Pears
