Doughnut Peaches

Now the truth is coming out: so - not a *real* gardener then

 

"M", I thought you knew by now I live in an 8th floor flat.

 

But surely you've installed one in your Mum's garden?

 

We've not got the room yet :(

 

nectarines are hard but normal peaches not at all (unless they are not ripe).

 

Hi Java,

I meant the nut there not the fruit, the fruit is lovely and soft.

 

I put some peach stones in a pot two years ago, one germinated last year and one germinated this year.
Nature doesn't work fast, always, but it usually gets there in the end.

I'd not de stone the seed, but put it out over winter to stratify.

 

I have a really good book. Somewhere called 'the pip book'. It's all about growing plants from kitchen fruit and veg. Really informative if you can find a copy. Best things I grew was a Lychee Tree and a small Date Palm!

 

Bought some of these yesterday: tasty little fruits!

 

I told you they were nice :p

 

Hi "M",

Do you fancy having a competition?

You plant a couple of stones and I will and we'll see how we go.

See who can get the biggest

 

No contest! I have the magic touch Best just hand over my winnings now

 

I think the less said about your "* touch *" after the a Asp...... incident the better.

What are the winnings ???

 

A big peach tree!
