Here we are in September and its time for the Quince Count, which is a source of great joy for me.
Let us begin:
1 quince
2 quince
3, 4, 5, 6 quince (trust me, there are four here)
7 quince
isn't number 7 rather a nice shape?
oh happy sigh....
my quince tree over-floweth, well maybe not over-floweth but seven is a pretty amazing number after all these years of waiting. I think I may be not being too presumptuous to be considering jelly recipes. Can you make jelly from seven quinces? I will let you know.
Hang on a minute you say, where is Quince minor?
Blotchy-McBlotch Face? Quince minor is fine, still in situ. He's been reprieved until next year but if the blotchiness returns then I cannot guarantee mercy.
There is a forest of followed trees over on Squirrelbasket's blog.

ReplyDeleteI'm following your quince tree blogposts already for a long time. Finally justistice with no less than 7 quinces. It was worth the fun of waiting.

Congratulations! and I'm glad to hear Quince Minor has a year's reprieve.
ReplyDeleteThat number seven is perfection itself!
ReplyDeleteWell worth the wait, I would say :)
Congratulations! It is always a great joy when a fruit tree finally starts to produce fruits. Even if it initially only makes a few of them.
