Blueberry plants 🌱 Gardening Australia S35E01

Likely illegible (and not really intended for reading, lol, more just to squirrel it away for myself), but notes I took today from the first 100 pages of Fruit Trees in Small Spaces, by Colby Eirmen. It was a good choice of book to start with, I think; a lot of easily broken down advice, and a consideration for the space we actually live in, including tips for container growing fruit trees (ours are in the ground, but I appreciate the acknowledgment that, like, space or land ownership (like for renters) might be an issue).

My wife won, by the way. We are expecting our cold-hardy pomegranate trees (and a few plum trees) this coming Thursday, lol.

Now this is absolutely a white mulberry, with its high gloss small leaves and obviously white fruit. My tree doesn’t look like this at all. But there more I look into it, there are so many caveats. They usually look like this, they usually have these traits. My leaves are small right now, dull, but have really defined undersides. The bark isn’t warm in color, but the fruit cluster… but like three at a time. I just don’t know 😭

I love that the people who lived here before planted these apple trees 🍏🥹🍎
