Summer Of 2012 A Very Good Year For Carroll Gardens' Fruit Crops

Summer Of 2012 A Very Good Year For Carroll Gardens' Fruit Crops

IMG_9126IMG_9127IMG_91252012 seems to have been exceptional for fruit-bearing trees around the neighborhood.  You may remember the apricot tree on DeGraw Street that had an over-abundance of fruit. back in June  And now, in early September, there is more evidence that this year's hot summer has produced a bumper crop.
Just look at all the pears ripening on this tree on Carroll Street.  Though it bears fruit every fall, I have never seen so many hanging from its branches.

And look at this fig tree on Second Place at the corner of Court Street.  Quite impressive, no?
