I usually regard these as autumn fruits, picking
September/October, but this year some are ready now. I've been
picking a few off various bushes in the fields for a couple of

even some flowers. Has anyone else noticed this or is it
peculiar to this area this year?


Possibly a combination of some early cultivars escaping and an unusually
warm Summer so far? I noticed it last year as well in the South.
