And, cherries.

These are too good! This tree is grafted, which means three different kinds of cherries on one tree. My favorite of all is of course Rainer.
However, we just found out our plum tree has no fruit at all this year. What happened?! It's because this cold spring and summer, I assume. I'm staring at the tree all day, and it makes me depressed...Although I know I can buy plums from stores pretty cheep, ours are truly organic!

おまけにさくらんぼ。一本の木に三種類のさくらんぼがなります。おいしいのはレーニエ。おいしすぎて顔をしかめるくらい美味。
でも裏庭にて撃沈的発見が。大木になってきたプラムの木に実がひとつもない!どうしたんだ!花は咲いて、蜂さんもお仕事がんばっていたのに、どうなってしまった!春が寒すぎて、受粉のタイミングが悪かったのだろうか・・・さくらんぼの次に楽しみにしていたのに、落ち込むぅ。
