Fruit trees planted

It took us almost the whole week-end to plant our new 12 fruit trees in our meadow with my father-in-law. Completely exhausted :-) But happy!

Above the list of the fruit tree names we have planted:

  1. Plum tree – Prunus domestica ‘Quetsche d’Alsace
  2. Mirabelle – Prunus syriaca ‘Mirabelle de Nancy’
  3. Apple tree – Malus ‘Granny Smith’
  4. Apple tree – Malus ‘Golden Delicious’
  5. Pear tree – Pyrus communis ‘Williams Bon Chrétien’
  6. Pear tree – Pyrus communis ‘Conference’
  7. Cherry – Prunus avium ‘Burlat’
  8. Cherry – Prunus avium ‘Géant Hedelfinger’
  9. Apple tree only for pollination – Malus ‘Evereste’
  10. Walnut – Juglans regia ‘Franquette’
  11. Hazel – Corylus avellana ‘Merveille de Bollwiller’
  12. Chestnut – Castenea sativa ‘Marigoule’

We were lucky as it was a perfect week-end for planting: sunny and about 10°C!

Whit Monday…

…is absolulety great! Cool temperature, cool weather.

I’m just sitting in front of my laptop in the garden near the swimming-pool (picture below), listening to an "Electronica Genius Mix" generated by iTunes. Working a bit, as my wife is on duty today and is already visiting some patients ;-)

27°C planed for today :-)
