Pyrus pashia ‘India’
This pear is found growing wild from Afghanistan, throughout the Himalayas, to west China. It will produce many of its tiny fruits this month |

Malus sp. “Chinese crab-apple”
The seed from these trees was collected in Guizhou, Western China in 1985 and may be a new species. |
Juglans regia ‘Laciniata’ “Cut-leaved walnut”
This is an uncommon form of the walnut. The four plants in the arboretum normally start to produce nuts during September |
|
Morus nigra “Black mulberry”
The dark red, juicy fruits will be ripe by the end of the month |
Sorbus aucuparia “Mountain ash” or “Rowan”
This familiar British native will carry large bunches of berries which birds love |

Viburnum opulus “Guelder rose”
Another native plant, the berries glow and should be spectacular as the leaves change colour towards the end of the month |
