Andy Rodker's photos with the keyword: apricots

Apricot tree laden with ripe fruit. Better on large to see the fruit more clearly. It has a wonderful warm colour, unlike the uniformly yellow, hairy to the tongue and sharp ones we see here and in the UK in the shops (although to be fair those ones do make the most perfect of all jams, imho!).

They are looking good already but we could do with a week of much warmer weather. It's been dry but very unseasonably cold with a persistent northerly wind. These apricots are a world apart from the mass produced yellow, hairy and tart apologies for the name of apricots you often get in the shops, even in Spain!

Apricots are a few weeks behind this year but it's looking good for a bumper crop of the sweetest fruit imaginable! Go large for Spanish plain scenery.

Actually this shot was taken a couple of weeks ago. I took the last three fruit off the tree yesterday. In the background is a white rose bush.

Apricot tree in the garden. Apparently they should be ready in about a week. H. A. N. W. E. everyone! Additional note 2 days after posting - they're starting to eat beautifully now!
