In the fall of 2007 I made a goal of planting 1000 trees....
“Trees are the best monuments that a man can erect to his own memory. They speak his praises without flattery, and they are blessings to children yet unborn.” – Lord Orrery, 1749
Saturday, we planted seven more trees at my parent's Potter Valley property. This is an Indian blood peach, the second of two peaches I planted.
Family: Rosaceae

A friend passed this fig off to me. I planted it on the side of the house where I can espalier it on the west wall in the zone between house and fence I call "Death Alley" due to the warm afternoon heat. Here I have cacti and succulents thriving. I hope to give the fig the long warm season it needs to ripen it's fruit.

Cultivar: Ficus carica 'Panachée'
