スモモ「李王」の幼果が順調に育っています。スーパーなどで見たこともない品種、しかも贈答品として使われているようなので、とても楽しみです。
Young fruits of plum "Riou": I only got the new plant in spring last year. The fruits of this variety stores well and matures off the tree with a strong aroma. It is one of the varieties used as formal presents.
I grafted scions of Nankou ume plum on the Elephant Heart, in January this year. The extract obtained by pickling green ume plums in sugar makes very delicious juice when diluted with water.
ラズのルビービューティが昨日までの雨で一部地面に落ちていました。あっという間にシーズンが終わりそうです。
Raspberry "Ruby Beauty (a.k.a. Shortcake)": some fruits were spoiled in the rains we have had for the last several days (the rainy season has started).
