COWS GRASS AND FRUIT

For those that may have missed it, we had loose cattle in the yard.  See the post HERE about it.

Cows back home, fence up and all is good.  

Oh and we got some free fertilizer out of the deal, ha.  I was mowing Saturday when I saw the cow patties and I thought "where did THAT come from?" and then I saw the cow.  And another.  Anyway, click the link above if you missed it.

I did get to mow on Saturday in between cow drama.

Then on Sunday I worked on the fruit trees, keeping the grass and weeds out of the beds, watering, etc.

Here are some photos:

Plum

This might not look like it yet, but it's a plum.  There are about ten on the tree, all in varying states of ripening.  IN this picture it looks kind of peachy but it's a soft pink color, turning to red at some point...

Pear

Here is a pear, one of two on the tree.  It's still early but doing well...

Peach or nectarine

This is the weird supposed to be a peach (Flordaking variety).  Of course one had split so I pulled it off, tore it open and it smells like a peach and looks like a peach.  Not sure.  Could it be a nectarine?  They all have the speckles on them, not sure if that's a disease or not, need to do some research as they get closer to ripening.  Oh and one that is further along feels like it's developing peach fuzz and I don't think nectarines do that...?

Meyer lemon

This is the Meyer lemon tree, doing great...

Satsuma orange

Here is an satsuma orange.  There are a few on the tree, growing nicely...

Lime

And this is the lime tree, has several blooms and several smaller fruits on it.  Looks good and healthy...

There was one more gardening project I did, but I'll save that for another post.  

Hope you had a great weekend!
