They’re very good. Especially Nadia very deep sweet or sour. However I really like Sweet Treat Pluerry. I think you should planting Nadia and Sweet Treat KT.

Kaweah peaches are slowly ripening here. Best peach I’ve grown with high sugar (~22 brix) balanced with acid. Thanks @fruitgrower for the recommendation. Late season peaches are the way to go here in the Bay Area. It blooms very late here - made me think it didn’t have enough chill but all the buds opened and formed fruits.

Sweet Treat Pluerry is the fruit smaller than average plum? isnt a plum /cherry? is it self fertile? your tree is very productive! i think no nadine is like more sweet than sour. a little sour skin ok inside sour i cant eat.

Nadia tree ripped is excellent flavor. I picked mine in several times, it’s up to what you use them for. Making jam, drink and finally for fresh eating.
Sweet Treat should be needing pollinators. I have 1 big tree 6 years old but heavy trimmed 3 times maybe that why it’s very late for fruiting. However it had about 40 fruits this year. Every year before had less than 10 fruits. Hopefully next year will be full of fruits. No more trimming because they really good. Especially tree ripening. And my second one just planted last fall in backyard next to Nadia, it had about 25 fruits this year. They all very good size and flavor as Pluot to me. The reason I had the second tree because planning removal of the front yard one but now we will keep it.

They’re very good size of fruit. Plant it in your mom property so everyone can enjoy the fruits.
Average 1 fruit = 53 grams

Wow! I bet it tastes amazing…
I will get to try Kaweah this year for the fist time. Unfortunately, probably not until October. It was so cold, for so long this spring that everything is about 2.5 weeks late. I just harvested the last of my Early Redhavens today.

Interesting. Things are 1-2 weeks ahead here. While we are having a milder summer, our spring got warmed up quickly (no rain 
) which probably sped things up. You’ll love Kaweah if you like balanced sugar+acid flavor.

Very gorgeous looking Chojuros, Tony! Can you share any tips on growing such flawless beauties?
Are you sure that’s Chojuro? Mine are way darker and much later. Like mid September.

All my Asian pears scions were from the USDA repository at Corvallis that I got many years ago. I grafted them all with Cleveland flowering pear /callery rootstocks. I don’t spray them. The lawn springlers watered them every other day. I thinned out most of the fruits with insect bites. These trees are 12 years old and 20 feet tall. This years is so hot in the upper 90s to 103F for 6 weeks straight and every varieties are ripen way early. My European pears are so ripe on the tree right now and rotten with Japanese beetles all over them.

Red Delicious apple that dropped. Not bad at all! Tastier than last year. Peel was already pretty tough. Dipped in peanut butter it was quite a snack.
