I have harvested a lot of Cherries today. The lighter Evans Cherry contrasts with a darker Montmorency Cherry.

Picking Sour Cherries
Red Wings Maple
Red Wings Maple is a cultivar of the Tatarian Maple. The seeds have attractive red wings that last for awhile in the summer.
North Star Cherry Bird Attraction
The North Star Pie Cherry has been pumping out the cherries this summer. Robins and other birds have been helping themselves eating these sour cherries.
Evans Cherry Laden with Fruit
The Evans Cherry is becoming larger every year, thus it is producing more cherries. Soon it may start producing more cherries than I can use, though the birds compete for the fruit, too.
White Nanking Cherry
Awhile ago I germinated some Nanking Cherry seed I bought from Lawyer Nursery and planted a lot of the seedlings out. All of the fruit is red, except to my delighted surprise, one of the plants bear white cherries.
Rose Bushes
A lot of the different Rose bushes are flowering around here. Pink flowers in front and white flowers in the background.
Hoptree with Yellow Leaves
The Golden Hoptree has leaves that shine like the yellow sun. This small tree is going to really stand out once it grows above the grass.
Little Rose
I snapped a shot of this little Rose that was growing in the hay field, among the grasses. The Roses are frequently cut with the grass, so stay small, yet bloom.
Smoketree Cultivars
The genus Cotinus can be colorful. Above are 4 different Smoketree cultivars with different colored leaves.
