Apricot - Glengarry 8/10 Han's Edible FruitsUpdate: 5734 days 9hrs Comments: - Full of flowers now, hope the birds will leave some fruits for us this year. A graceful tree and extremely healthy. The tree is quite tall so no fruit has been picked. The birds dropped some fruits with some of them barely touched. I couldn't resist to pick it up and have a task. Oh, it was so sweet and tasty. Wish I were a bird. But, considering it provides nice afternoon shade in summer and beautiful blossoms in spring, I am not going to prune it back.

Lilly Pilly - Springbrook 5/10 Han's Edible FruitsUpdate: 5871 days 13hrs Comments: - A very exotic plant for a person grown up overseas. I have never seen edible berries with such striking blue and pink colours, so extraordinary and almost deadly. It should have been poisonous judging by the colour but so unexpectedly kunchy, refreshing and tasty.

Pear - Williams 3/10 Han's Edible FruitsUpdate: 5871 days 13hrs Comments: - This is actually an old seeding tree, similar shape fruit to that of williams. Definitely a decendent of a European pear.The tree is about 6m tall and slightly infested with pear slug worm. It bears heavily, but the biggest fruits are all on the top of the tree, making it impossible to pick and the birds always get them first. I covered some fruits with newspaper on the lower branches. But very disappointing, the fruit is very very sweet, almost too stweet, and the texture is very dry and hard, not very pleasant to eat. I don't know if it has anything to do with watering because I didn't give it any water even during the harsh Adelaide summer. Anyway, I am going to cut it back to waist high in winter and multi-graft it with nashi Nijiseiki and Kosui.
