Hopefully the blossom will develop into a healthy crop of greengages.

Reprieved Again
You may recall that Farmer Husband has in the past threatened to cut down the greengage tree in our garden due to lack of production. It had a last minute reprieve last year when it had some blossom and even produced a few fruit. Fortunately this year it has quite a lot of blossom.

The blossoms are beautiful, but I've never heard of greengages.
ReplyDeleteKaren they are a kind of green plum, slightly rounder and beautifully sweet. This article tells you all you need to know https://www.nytimes.com/2004/09/01/dining/a-finicky-fruit-is-sweet-when-coddled.html
DeleteGlad it has survived as I know they are your favorites!
