Kiwano or horned melons. I've tried them before but never managed to get them to fruit.

This year they have fruited well but it's too late in the season for them to ripen.

I've put them in the fruit bowl in the hope they may colour up but I'm not counting on it happening.

Even so, they make a funky arrangement.







Autumn in the orchard be like .... Apples, medlars, avos, tamarillos plus almonds and feijoas.

Overflowing with fruit today.
4 X different plums including the start of the Louisa.
Some Belle pears, a few nectarines (not a good year for them this year), lemons and the lady of the Vailes Early apples.

I've spent years trying to eradicate the barberry hedge and now find the berries are edible, although a little tart. Also beneficial to health.
So now I have a dilemma. Do I keep one and call it a tree crop? Or should I eradicate all the evil buggers?
