Masses of apples on our trees, but very small. I have thinned some on a dwarf Gala tree, but others are out of reach. Bees enjoyed the blackberry flowers as some of the last blossom of the summer. They will start to slow down now and soon bees hatched will be winter bees that, with a slower metabolism, can survive for six months over the colder winter months, rather than the summer bees that can live for just six weeks.
