    My "Orchard"

    OK I admit that the word "orchard" for a 20 by 20 meter area is probably misleading, but hell my house in the UK didn't take up that much area and that was a 4 bedroomed house, I admit it was 3 storeys though, but how many of us could afford a four bedroomed bungalow in London?

    Anyway I have decided that it shall be refered to as an orchard and that's that.

    Sunday late afternoon they planted 30 odd fruit trees, these are all 1 to 3 years old, in my tiny little shophouse garden they all looked massive, but alas in reality when you plant them in the proper size land, erm, they just don't look so impressive, infact pityfull is the word I think I am looking for, but they will grow, I checked them all today and they all seem to be doing well, anyway here is a picture of one line of them.

    Cocunut Trees;

    Now there seems to be 2 main types of cocunut trees, tall ones that grow massive and short ones that stay relatively short, but there are also many differant flavours etc, there is one cocunut tree that apparently smells nice, and another that has sweet milk, we have planted 7 of the big beasty ones along the boundry wall, but today my galfriend decided we need to buy small ones as well, so off we go to the local coconut seller, they seem extremly easy to grow as you will see.

    My fruit trees in my orchard seem to be thriving, and I believe only one of them died, here is a nice picture of one but I have no idea what sort it maybe.
