Today I also picked my first Sal's EL. Two of them, actually. Fruit was hidden under leaves so they were undetected previously and probably two days past prime but still quite good.

I picked another Bourjasotte Grise today and taste was great. Sorry, fruit is out of focus. Neil (posturedoc) had mentioned his plant size, etc. so I took a photo with my tree in the background. My tree was started from a cutting in January 2013 and has grown well, IMO. By the way, those are my fields of alfalfa in the background. I will be expanding my orchard into that direction another 48 feet.
