Looking out the kitchen window it was apparent spring has arrived. The daffodils Jan planted under the three fruit trees beside the pool have flowered.
On the southern boundary garden the first hibiscus has also flowered.
The same has happened on the northern boundary garden
Out the front, the apricot tree we planted three weeks ago has buds and new leaves.
And the adjacent avocado tree is showing signs
The mulberry has lost some early fruit to the recent storms
The lemon tree looks positive
Whilst the orange tree has signs of new growth it’s development hasn’t been nearly as good as the lime and lemon.
The small garden Jan created after I remove the old Peppergum tree is looking healthy.
Jan is the one with the green fingers. The only plants that thrive under my ministrations are the weeds!
The one tree we now have that doesn’t produce something edible is the Frangipani. And we couldn’t find a relative who would take it! I suspect by the time these trees are big enough to provide a good quantity of produce we will be compost….. probably around the base!
