“The trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit.”
Moliere
“It's when a fruit is growing on a tree and a twig or leaf brushes against the fruit as it's maturing and leaves this mark. It's a characteristic of a lot of oranges you never see.”
William North
“Now... thanks to your hacking my trees to the ground, there's not enough Truffula Fruit to go 'round.”
Dr. Seuss
“Southern trees bear strange fruit,Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.”
Billie Holiday
“Hang there like fruit, my soul,Till the tree die.”
William Shakespeare
“Large trees give more shade than fruit”
Proverb
“Don't buy trees with fruit on them. Pick the fruit off as it appears. Don't let it produce the first two or three years and when it gets to be three or four years old, it'll produce heavily.”
