    Wow, I've never ever seen an almond tree - as I know of anyway.

    I think it's very very beautiful! So fresh green too.

    They seem to be getting quite big. I like the close-up pic. I've never seem almonds on the tree before - just in a bag of nuts!

    A beautiful tree and those almonds look very promising. We have a hazel tree which keeps the squirrels happy.

    I like to eat the almonds under the tree, breaking the fruit between two stones as I did it when I was a child!
    Chut!! Don't repeat it Mar!

    So it DOES really grow almonds! YUM! Can you eat them right off the tree? Do they have to be cooked or something? I am so UNaware of how nuts work!!!

    I have never seen an almond tree, Mar. I loved seeing it in bloom and it is nice to see the fruit of that blooming! Wish I could have some of the nuts.

    Cool almond tree!!! When we lived in Sharjah growing up as little kids, we lived in an Arab style house for a while... The courtyard had an almond tree in the centre... I have a lot of great memories of that house... There in the gulf I remember the tree bore fruit somewhere in June-July
