We planted two Hardy Hall's Almonds, and this is the second year they blossomed. Almond tree in bloom ( photo / image / picture from marlingardener's Garden ) Needless to say, we were so happy to see those blooms. When we saw this, we were ecstatic! Baby Almonds! ( photo / image / picture from marlingardener's Garden ) We actually have almonds forming on the trees! It's so nice when something works out the way you hope . . . .
Congrats on the babies! Let us know their progress. I love almonds, but know nothing about the plants. Not sure if they would like it up here in Nebraska. My friend has a great, old Flowering Almond bush, but I don't think it produces almonds. Sure does have pretty flowers though. (I may dig up a part of it to try(
Congratulations! It is always welcome to see the tree produce something after we wait for a bloom or two, but a whole tree full? YAY! Now, to get some rain regularly... I keep sending and wishing it your direction.
With the amount of flowers on your tree it looks as though you're going to get quite a few almonds. I'd love to grow them here but I don't think they'd like our climate.
Congratulations Marlingardner, I have eaten tons of almonds and this is the first time I see a almond plant and actual almonds on the plant ... WOW!!! :-D :-D :-D
We planted almond trees when we lived in Arizona. The pink flowers are lovely and smell great. Only thing, we didn't get any almonds. The ground squirrels like almond trees, too. They ate the roots and the trees died. So, did the peach trees. The area was full of those darn pests that year. dooley
Cayuga, depending on the harvest, we may have one almond raw, and the other roasted! Carolyn, your wishes came true--we had 1 1/2" of rain this morning! My husband ran out to check on the almonds. They are wet, but still on the tree.
