Just as a short interlude from the heavy politics I bought a pear tree 2 years ago. It was for a patio and would grow in a pot but in my wisdom I planted it out in the garden and it has grown very well. Last year it didn't fruit as was expected but this year there was a small amount of blossom and I have waited patiently. This year it has fruited - I picked 3 dark red plums today!

Now either this tree is having a difficult personal crisis or was wrongly labeled to start with in which case the grower was. Life is full of surprises!

I must be bored. I walked out to the garden to look at the plants we have in our patio containers. These include dwarf rootstock plums, pears and apples (last year was really quote boring)....


I can't tell the difference in foliage at a distance. I suspect a um tree did a runner......

I blame Brexit. If we'd stayed in the EU you'd have got your pears instead of the unwanted plums!

I know you believe in miracles

Ha ha. Beat me to it.
Borchester - do you like a nice juicy pear?

Life is indeed full of surprises and I know you believe in miracles but you planted a pear tree and have picked 3 plums from it.......blimey!

My thought exactly!
