the nostalgic fruitgrower

Looking at my most recent plantings, and thinking of the things I've regretted not being able to grow, or secretly dreamed of growing, has started me wondering why fruit trees, more than any other plants, seem so deeply nostalgic.

fruit trees are go!

Big day in the yard Sunday (July 11) as the long-awaited fruit trees were picked up from Katie of Mt Alexander Fruit Gardens at Wesley Hill Market on Saturday morning, and all planted out on Sunday. Only 13 trees, but that was tricky enough, especially doing them alone!
