This morning’s picture shows nectarines that are just about ready. This really is a beautiful tree, from the flowers earlier in the year to the bright red fruit. And the fruit is, of course, great to eat — on par with our peaches, but I think even better. We will have nectarines in abundance for a week or more, depending on how hot the weather gets. I was surprised to learn that nectarine trees have been around a long time, dating back thousands of years to east Asia.
