August 2019
The second week of August always keeps us watching both the Victoria plums and Discovery apples as to the best time to pick over for the earlier ripening fruit. It being the 12th today, neither is ready. Apple colour is intensifying, even on later varieties, enhanced by the cooler night temperatures now. Colour does not fairly represent flavour or edibility!
Patience for the next few days will be worth it. The Victoria plums may be first!
