Pecans

See what I mean about the pecans? All three of our pecan trees are full of great, fat pecan fruits. These are nearly the size of lemons.


And look at our old pecan tree in the front yard--so heavy with fruit that its branches touch the ground.


In past years, the old tree has aborted its pecans before they were ready. I'm hoping that this is a better year for them, though I can't imagine why it would be. Perhaps pecans thrive on adversity.
