My most prolific and successful fig tree came from North Carolina.

While mowing the lawn yesterday, I noticed the pomegranate bush is really loaded - most 'fruit' I've ever seen on it. This bush is at least 45 years old (how long we've owned the property) & was probably planted around the time the house was built (1922). Last year there were 3 large, ripe pomegranates on it - I'm curious to see how many of these small ones make it to maturity. We have some really old bushes/trees around here and I find that I'm more and more 'attached' to them as we all get older! :-)
