Looks like there's some fruit set on the Harcot apricot, Brooks plum, and Comice pear. Not shown was the Bosc pear that has some too.

There is a small fuzzy green fruit growing within what's left of the dead blossom parts.A photo showing a couple of small shiny plum fruits starting to grow. It's possible they are not pollinated but fruit tend to grow fast during cell division if they are pollinated otherwise they grow slow and then fall off.A photo showing fruit starting to grow after pollination on a Comice pear tree. The fruit grows sorta behind where the flower was. There are hybrid aus willow catkins hanging on the tree.

The Comice pear has open blooms and the Spitzenburg apple tree that's on it's own roots is showing some pink.

There are many unopened blossoms around them and new shiny pear leaves.A photo showing unopened Esopus Spitzenburg apple blossoms. They are pink to red color emerging from fuzzy gray sepals on a long stem. The view is from the side.

The #pear #tree is in eco mode this year (these are all the blossoms we got 😂), whereas the #Mirabelle #plum tree goes all out. 🎇
Oh, and our #jostaberry bush is in bloom too! I only got it in autumn from my parents' garden so I didn't know what to expect. For those of you who don't know this berry, it's a cross between gooseberry and black currant. In German we call it #Jochelbeere (that's the name I would use) or #Jostabeere (*Jo*hannisbeere + *Sta*chelbeere - the German names of the "parent" fruits). It tastes just like you would expect and the bushes are thornless

A close-up, low-angle shot showcases a cluster of delicate white pear blossoms against a vibrant, clear blue sky. The blossoms are in various stages of bloom, some fully open with pristine white petals, while others are still budding with hints of green. The petals are slightly ruffled and have subtle veining. The centre of each open flower reveals numerous slender white filaments topped with yellow anthers, and a few have reddish-pink pistils.
A few young, light green leaves with visible veins are emerging from the same branch, providing a contrast to the white flowers. The branch itself is a textured brown, showing its bark. The lighting is bright and natural, highlighting the translucency of the petals and the details of the flower's reproductive structures. The focus is sharp on the blossoms, with the blue sky providing a clean and uncluttered backdrop. The overall impression is one of springtime freshness and delicate beauty.A medium, low-angle shot captures several slender branches of a flowering Mirabelle plum tree against a partly cloudy, light blue sky. The branches are dark brown and covered in numerous clusters of small, white flower buds. Some of the buds have just begun to open, revealing delicate white petals and yellow stamens within. Tiny, fresh green leaves are also emerging along the branches. The blossoms and buds are densely packed, suggesting a profuse bloom. The sky in the background features wispy white clouds, providing a soft contrast to the dark branches and white flowers. The lighting appears to be natural daylight, casting subtle shadows on the blossoms and branches. The overall impression is one of early spring and new growth.A close-up shot focuses on a slender, light brown stem of a plant, likely a currant or gooseberry bush, against a blurred background of muted green and brown tones. Along the stem, there are several clusters of developing flowers and young leaves.
On the left side of the stem, a few open flowers are visible. They have small, reddish-purple petals surrounding a pale green and white centre with prominent white stamens tipped with yellow anthers. These flowers are nestled amongst small, crinkled, light green leaves with serrated edges.
Further along the stem, towards the right, are clusters of tightly closed flower buds. These buds are a mix of reddish-brown and pale green, indicating they are yet to open. More of the characteristic crinkled, light green leaves are also present, growing directly from the stem and at the base of the flower clusters.

So much blossom on the pear tree outside the house, and so many bees! Very nice to see.

Visited #DrummondCastle again this weekend, gardens looking glorious - shame about the rain.

Was pleased to see they’ve updated the brochure map to list the heritage #AppleTree varieties - very few have legible labels on the trees. There are two sets, mostly older trees against the walled garden wall, and mostly new plantings free standing lower down the slope.

They need to do their small #PearTree collection next..

Bosc pear, Comice pear, Brooks plum, and Harcot apricot 7 days after being woken up from their winter sleep.

De bloesem van de Gieser Wildeman stoofpeer in de tuin is op haar mooist. De bladeren zijn wel erg gekruld maar dat is normaal. Ik dacht vroeger dat het een Duitse peer was maar nee, het ras is gekweekt in 1850 door meneer Wildeman uit Gorinchem.

I do like watching squirrel acrobatics in the sycamore and lyme trees at the bottom of the garden, but now they've raided both the pear trees again so another years crop gone. One tree has been completely stripped and another with about 10 pears left. 🙁
I've painted a band of cribbox (grease with chilli) around the tree trunk which worked for a while but they've started ignoring it. Anyone have any other ideas to keep them off my pears?
