Dark red and golden plums, neither much bigger than a cherry each. This year’s yield looks promising, the little green plums are plentiful. These trees were allowed to get Awfully Tall and it will take a lot of ladders and ingenuity to get at the upper branches but Dad’s willing to let my friends try. <BR><BR>I want a big bucket of the red ones to do more plum wine, the last batch [which I hoard fervently] came out better than the best plum wine you ever had at a Japanese restaurant. My mother calls them “Italian plums” but I wonder if they are not actually Japanese, particularly the golden ones.<BR><BR>The main
cherry picking country in Caid is Beaumont, yesno? That’s Dreibergen, so we need to ask our friends in that direction what the season looks like so far.<BR><BR>Selene</SPAN></FONT> <o:p></o:p></div></DIV>_______________________________________________<BR>Sca-cooks mailing list<BR>Sca-cooks@lists.ansteorra.org<BR>http://lists.ansteorra.org/listinfo.cgi/sca-cooks-ansteorra.org<BR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>
