Tuesday - Peaches

[ninanevermore]

I wrote back in March about the berries and peaches that grow in my yard in the spring. For those of you who like visual images to go with the words, here are the peach blossoms and the subsequent peaches that I picked the other week. I forgot to photograph them as baby peachlings wearing tutus of dried flower petals, but the ripe fruit is pretty in it's own right.



As blossoms in March


As fruit on the tree






Gathered by my hands and nestled in the arms of the mother tree that grew them




We are making peach cobblers and peach ice cream over at my house this week. Anyone hungry?

She did a nice job this year. I think I'll give her an extra serving of fertilizer!

I love peach blossoms! Pretty pictures.

Thank you! The blossoms smell kind of like peaches themselves; I love when they are blooming.

peach ice creams sounds great...and they look so pretty... my grandmother had a peach tree once, and it didnt look anything like that..

We have 2 different trees and they are both different. I think it depends on the species of peach. The other tree makes bigger peaches that are a little sweeter. These are small and kind of sweet-tart in flavor.

When I was a child we had a peach tree. Dee-licious.

Aren't they neat? I hate our house (it's a fixer upper; nice theory, hellish reality), but I love that it came with these trees...
