fruit dump!!

🍒 cherries are growing quickly and are so numerous it’s dizzying to look up.

🍑 all three peaches have fuzzy little fruits along the branches, and there’s one like three inches in diameter above the porch!

💜 the plums are also crazy and i’m so astounded at how many fruits are coming in!!

🍇 and look at my tiny little grapes !!! 😍

another beautiful sunday 🌈🌱🌸

the back trees are really exploding, and i even see real fruits on the left one! (🍐?) the lemon blossoms smell absolutely divine. the grape is impressive enough to get a full body shot now. i have a whole bucket of top-branch lemons for work. the newbies (🍅🥒) continue to fill out. i didn’t know aloe flowered. and i’m even getting some blooms on the baby orange! 🍊
