bolshaya pear, ripe in the first week of sept. largest one was a decent size over three inches across. I have a group of these grafts growing on saskatoon rootstock, bolshaya seems to do well and outgrows most other pears and it's fully hardy in zone 3. I would have more fruit if there were more pears nearby for pollination, remember to plant a few or some wild ussurian pears.

toka plum, just about fully ripe hanging on at the start of september, a few more days and they'll get a darker red. awesome bubblegum flavour, surprises everyone who tries it. this graft is four year old on wild chokecherry rootstock, it's shaked and top heavy with growth, I'll need to prune it next spring. a good fruit set finally after I bought over some wild plum boughs in a vase while it was flowering.

jerusalem artichoke patch, these will keep growing until we get frost later on this month. usually I'll see small flowers, and I think the tallest year they were about head height. the beds in here are tilted up and have some rhizome barriers so I can grow a few varieties. thinking we can dig them at the end of Sept and send them out in our fall sale, otherwise I keep them in bags in a fridge over the winter.

back row left to right: american wild plum (small), and large, then sokol plum (a locally named tree), then Toka. it the front row is Canada wild plums, the left is an old tree row variety, then a wild collected one, and the an old orchard tree, probably started as a rootstock or it could be a pollinator tree.
