New years day sunset and a little snow on sloes and leaves. #photography #naturephotography #sloes #snow #sunsetphotography #leaves #jan26
Sloes, Prunus spinosa, hang from the branches of a shrub in a hedge near home.
The #sloes in the hedges around the fields near our house are laden with fruit this year.
I will probably make #sloegin again, although I actually prefer #sloeport.
When you drain the gin from the sloes, keep them. Add red wine and brandy and wait for a while. The result is ‘sloe port’!
Have a great Service everyone...

Good year for Sloes… fruit of the blackthorn.. bitter unless after a sharp frost.. we have fewer of those now and much later in the year… #blackthorn #sloes
Gin, now we're talking. Sloes ripening in the autumn sunshine. Nearly ready to place in the gin. You could make other stuff but why bother. #sloe #sloes #gin #fruit #fruitseason #leaves #autumn #plant #photography

Picked some sloes on my walk today, will make some sloe gin with them when I've bathed all the scratches from the thorns 🤣 🩹🩹🩹

Following on from a bountiful harvest of blackberries, apples and pears, which will make plenty of crumbles through the winter, I've been out and picked this lot of sloes. Perfect for making sloe gin. #sloes #sloegin #harvest #thefreezersfull
This is a photo of sloe fruits in a hedgerow. They are growing in thick bunches among blackthorn and bramble and have a wonderful pale purple bloom.
I think it's a sloe gin kind of a year!

In a clockwise direction from the top left - haws, sloes, blackberry and hips - the fruits of hawthorn, blackthorn, brambles, rose
For #WildFlowerHour #fruits, it's that time of year for #hips #haws #sloes and #blackberries all signs of Autumn, although it is still summer (just, for a few more hours, although autumn weather has arrived in NE Hants🌦️). Another interesting fact is that they are all members of the Rosaceae family.
summer picture of a blackthorn hedgerow with hills and blue skies beyond. Sloe berries are now ripening and changing to a dark purple colour
Saturdays afternoon wanders in the Eden Valley, Cumbria. Lots of Sloes (Blackthorn) on the hedges and all begining to change from green to purple. Looks like a good crop for anyone who likes making Sloe Gin

A promising autumn Sloe crop in development here.
The bumper Blackthorn blossoming of April was well-pollinated.

Should be ok for #sloes later in the year. One section of #blackthorn that sits alongside the wood on our #Cotswolds farm. #naturefriendlyfarming

White blackthorn flowers covering multiple branches.
The blackthorns are in full bloom and they bring ALL the bees to the yard.

A busy morning, bottling sloe gin and recycling the sloes to make sloe port #sloes #sloegin #sloeport #Christmas
Blackthorn bonsai with white flowers in early Spring
The same Blackthorn bonsai 2 weeks later, with more leaves and the flowers starting to go over
Spring is definitely here; the Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) #bonsai in the garden are in flower
The pics are 2 weeks apart—what a difference in leaf growth 🌱
