Quinces

Never had many on this bush before but it is covered this year, must have been all the rain and sunshine.

Sounds jummy Mouldy, but too busy for jam making just yet, that will have to wait for a while, my raspberries are beginning to ripen so will make some raspberry and if there are any blackberries will make blackberry and apple jam. :O)

I should get enough blackberries from the one I planted behind the trellis.
Failing that, there's plenty by the railway bridge, both sides, halfway down my road.
They aren't sprayed, which is handy.
Crumble, jam & tarts. Mmmmm.

My daughter likes Bramble and Apple Jam so must go and look and see if we have any down the wood side. Last year there wasn't a one. In fact the fruit was poor last year this year the plums are really doing well so hoping to find blackberry's. Hope the birds have not been before me. lol

We had a glut of berries last year at the bridge.
I filled a chinese takeaway plastic container for each of my neighbours.
Naturally, I filled four for myself, froze them & used them through winter, plus another a week for fresh use, 'til they turned bitter at the end of the season. Lol.
When I'd finished picking you'd never believe anyone had been picking, there was such a crop!
