Because of my Thursday night influence, I've decided that I would like a garden. I want to grow fruits that I can eat. Veggies don't matter as much. Dad does tomatoes, so I'll let him go on with that. I want fruit trees and berry shrubs.
I used to be a city girl who had no clue what the plants that different fruits come from look like, but now I feel like to have seen and tasted a variety of things.
Did you know:
- Blueberries aren't called bleuets like they are in Canada. They call them myrtilles. Bleuets are flowers here.
- Adding the suffix ier to a fruit name creates the name of the tree it grows on. For example: pommier, cerisier, figuier.
- Red currants are called raisinettes. Black currants are called cassis. Totally different.
