Summer Blooms and Fruits

**Had quite a bit of trouble uploading pics for the last week. Blogger just wouldn't let them thru ***
Even though it's been very dry (no rain for at least a month - some arrived this evening), some of our fruit trees are getting on with life.
Here are our figs - attempt at fruiting at the right time after trying to fruit in winter.



Cumquat blooms - smells really pretty. These are the long cumquats with the sweet delicate skin. Very refreshing!




Persimmons!
Nothing last year due to the BIG DRY as well but with a relatively 'wetter' winter and spring, it's fruiting now. Have just netted it to keep the rosellas out.



Hi Anna! we're feeling just the opposite as the days are getting shorter. Dreading autumn....

I wish it were summer here already. I'm so sick of the cold!
