  1. Almond pollination

    Rows of blossoming almond trees stretch into the distance under a cloudy sky, with beehives neatly stacked nearby. South Australian Riverland vibe!

  2. Very disappointing, nothing at all about maintaining a coconut grove as far as I could tell.

  4. We had a single Yellow Transparent Apple tree in our orchard. We picked those for ourself and to sell at the door. They made the absolute best apple sauce!

  5. Was discussing apples with someone over on gander, a little tip, when your local tree org offers you apple trees, make sure you get at least 2 varieties to cross pollinate. Hearing a few folks that get all the same variety, and then wonder why they never get apples.

  6. Picked about 2 lbs. / 1 kg of blueberries this morning. There were a few rasberries and blackcaps to snack on along the way.

  7. Hobby gardeners: You must prune fruit trees very carefully so the tree can heal.

    Commercial fruit producers: We strapped 10 table saws to a tractor.

  8. Sitting in the shade of an Oak tree on a blazing hot day high above Zürich on the Hõnggerberg. On a path through an old traditional meadow-orchard managed by the Hõngg Natural History Society (Höngg NVV).

    This is a special place for me as it was I was introduced to nature conservation work, and got my first real grasp of vascular plants (through trying to eradicate suckers of Sumach/Essigbaum).

  9. I was turning the water on the berries and noticed some almost ripe and then actually ripe blueberries. The raspberries have got quite the jungle going too in the middle where I didn't dig up raspberries and start a new row.

  10. First Sunflower bloom of the year, from the volunteer next to the peach tree. No word from the ones I planted on purpose yet...
