We have peaches!

In January, Tessa and I planted two peach trees to add to our farm :)  They seem to be doing well so far, and hopefully they may give us a few peaches this first year.  The Florida Prince bloomed first and has sent a lot of peaches already, and the Dwarf Bonanza begun blooming this week.

Scott laughed at the size of them (especially the dwarf bonanza because it is maybe 18 inches tall), and they are small compared to our HUGE orange trees.  But we did learn that our trees were planted 70 years ago!  We are having fun nursing our trees back to health, and they are almost ready to bloom for next years crop.
