They are really easy to grow in pots! I'm not particularly green fingered. Just got some seedlings from the garden centre, one from b&q did particularly well, compost, water fairly regularly. You get about 3 years out of each plant. I don't bring them in over winter and they just come back

Well that’s a job now at the top of the list, thank you!

Pears but they have to be ripe, sweet & juicy.

And nectarines.
And grapes and ……………

British King cherries are pretty amazing at the moment. Love the big boxes of them that Tesco sell.

Coming out soon...Victoria Plums.

Yes! I look forward to these every September. I am not a huge fruit fan but adore Victoria plums.

Surprised to see so many saying melon and watermelon. 🤢

Lychees

Pears. Closely followed by bananas (perfect breakfast in a hurry)
I adore Minneolas but they're a hybrid that comes into the shop.once every other millenia.

Oh and a very ripe nectarine but the good ones are hard to find

Lychees
Indian mangoes (especially Alphonso and Langda varieties)
Black cherries
Watermelon
Physalis (again, the Indian varieties)
Guavas (sorry to be a broken record, but Indian rather than South American varieties)
Sankh aloo (that's the Hindi name - I don't know what it's called in English, I'm afraid, but Google tells me it's like jicama which is popular in Mexico)
