From Haugesund. With 3 children and a husband who's seemingly constantly away on business, I garden like it could save my life - and it probably does!

Prunus armeniaca

It has happened again. Only one single flower this time, but still. I might get an apricot. On my home grown tree from seed/stone/pit. Yay!

What do you think? This definitely looks like the beginning of something, doesn't it? And there is another one just like it, so if they both make it, I guess I can share (or not 😜) #fromseed - stone from a store-bought apricot. I never thought I'd get flowers, and then I thought for sure I needed another tree to get fruit. I do have another tree, also from self-eaten fruit, but that is a few years younger, so no flowers there yet.

With the autumn-like weather we've been having through most of May, I realize there is a real chance of it not ripening or simply dropping off, but I just can't help being excited - I mean, look what my home-made tree managed to do! Super cool!!! @terrimclaughlin

This, I believe, is apricot. (Unless I have gotten things mixed up - which is entirely possible) From seed/stone about 10 years ago. And now there are flowers!!!

I never thought I'd get fruit, that is such a bonus if that happens. Now I just hope we can avoid a late frost this year, fingers crossed! @cyndi
