My fruit trees are happy


My fruit trees are happy!
A few months ago I planted 30 sticks.... Today... LOOOK... How beautiful is this peach/plum tree..
Don't laugh... I think its peach but it could very well be plum... You see.. when  I got the trees, they had been blown about on a truck and had no tags and NO LEAVES.... so I couldnt Identify them.... Now, Im truly not the expert on trees.... maybe a few, like citrus... (but I'm sure that everyone is, you cant mistake that beeautiful smell)
I wonderful tried and tested trick for making citrus trees (and most others) grow beautifully is to put Epsom salts around the bass every now and again... I bought a big bag from a gardening shop and use it with relish.... 

My fig tree has 4 whole figs... (I bet that the blue cranes, geese and ducks that we share the garden with will be happy to see those... Im going to cover them in some netting just incase... (recycle some from an orange bag and put around the bunch of figs)..
Fig Tree Before....
