Rowan Trees!

My Actifit Blog #1214 | 21 August 2022 |

In recent years, the fruits of this tree could be seen only towards the end of September. But this year, somehow, with a lot of heat and dry weather, everything has turned out differently, so it seems that fall is already showing its face earlier.

Field paths and also roads in my community are currently flanked by rowan trees (mountain ash)! The bright red, sometimes yellow or yellow-orange colored fruit clusters are very pretty to look at. These fruits are - contrary to popular belief - edible. From them you can make, for example, jams or jellies.

Eaten directly from the tree, they are rather tart and the taste take a bit of getting used to.

In den letzten Jahren waren die Früchte dieses Baumes erst gegen Ende September zu sehen. Da aber dieses Jahr irgendwie mit viel Hitze und Dürre alles anders gekommen ist, scheint der Herbst bereits früher sein Gesicht zu zeigen.

Feldwege und auch Straßen in meiner Gemeinde werden zur Zeit von Ebereschen flankiert! Die knallroten, manchmal auch gelben oder gelb-orange farbenen Fruchtdolden sind sehr hübsch anzusehen. Diese Früchte werden auch Vogelbeeren genannt und sind - entgegen landläufiger Meinung - essbar. Aus ihnen lassen sich z.B. Marmeladen oder Gelees machen.

Direkt vom Baum verzehrt sind sie eher herb und im Geschmack sehr gewöhnungsbedürftig.
