Seed grown white nectarine in full flower, hopefully i get some fruit this season.
Will be interesting to see if its true to type or something completely different. The flowers are nice though.

The tall white flowering tree is a seed grown amber jewel plum. I've had many fruit from it but seems like it has reverted to something like a Santa Rosa, very juicy and sweet. Also it is quite tolerant from birds and fruit fly for some reason.

One of my favourite fruits, cape gooseberry.
The chickens quite enjoy them too, so they can become weedy but easy to control.

I have a tray of seedlings coming up now, plants will be ready to purchase within a few months.

So much wild comfrey to dig out before I plant my tomatoes and capsicums.
Comfrey is a bit controversial at the moment but it is such a useful plant.

Asparagus 'Fat Bastard'
Two seedlings coming up in the plant laboratory.
Amazing how such a small seed can become a big productive plant that will last for at least 30 years or more.
My main crop plants are just starting to emerge for the season. Pick them every day before the spears open up as big fern like leaves but you need to leave some later in the season to help put nutrients back into the crown and roots to store for winter dormancy.

Wild blue and white flowering borage growing next to each other !
