The persimmon fruit on my tree that bore an uncanny resemblance to the Venus of Willendorf has finally ripened and what a luscious beauty she is!
I do wish there were some way of preserving her for posterity, I can't imagine eating it.
The tree has a history of weird shaped fruit and this year it has not disappointed.
Don't you love the 'forest' setting? It is sitting in a bonsai of liquidamber trees, seedlings from the huge feral monster growing in our backyard and encroaching on the neighbours. It is due for a very expensive haircut, I wish it were as easy to trim as the bonsai.
