    I'm so tickled this year to actually get peaches from both trees (take THAT birds and diseases!) :D
    I picked the 12 remaining peaches tonight. They'll be prepped and frozen until next weekend when they become cobbler for the 4th of July.

    Thanks to the Stewbies who have given me tips and advice over the last few years!

    I agree, it makes me want to have harvests and I know if I look there won't be any flowering yet, but it still makes me want to look lmao

    Thanks everybody. I was beginning to think I'd never get to taste one of them. But staying on top of the spraying and keeping a close eye on them did the trick. Not to mention I kept telling them "Come on, I know you can give me fruit!" :D
