I have a small back yard, but with this incredible amount of fruit trees. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area.

I forgot the Mulberry Tree. The Mulberrys make great Smoothies. and Pies.
 
Wow - that looks good - reminds me of some of the gardens in Africa.

The memories of picking fresh passion fruit, avocados, pawpaws etc. so different.
 
Wow
We tried fruit trees here but as soon as the fruit started to ripen the bears would show up and destroy the trees.:bb: After the bears were done the deer show up and eat off any new growth....so its flowers for us:thumb:

All those fruit trees must be a lot of work keeping them pruned and healthy. That's prett cool. You have a lot of variety.

Norscanner. What a beautiful back yard.
We go up to Lake Tahoe often to a friends. Them bears can really be malicious! A Bear trying to get into my friends house last Winter, got his Huge Paws under the Aluminum Garage Door abd ruined the door. He did not make it into the house. The deer are beautiful to watch, but they will eat all your flowers and garden. I see plenty of them on my Med Route. GREAT PICTURE. THANKS :flowers:
 
It is surprising how much damage a bear can do. We had one look into the back door last year,no damage just paw prints. Here are a few pics of the yard These pics are a couple years old .....since then I have built an outdoor sauna, you can see the base in pic #1 and put in a green house and started a "white " garden and a "salsa" garden... damn my sweety keeps me busy eh? She does all the brain work I am just the guy with the shovel.

That's a gorgeous yard, Norscaner. I wish I had as good a garden design sense as your DW :smile:

DanDiamond, how great to have all that fruit right at your fingertips :smile: Beautiful.
 
That is really cool - we just have an apple tree on our parkway and a small serviceberry currently but this set of pictures inspires to do more.
