Siamese-twin peaches


Summer in the Negev desert is a long hot and dry season that tries one's soul.
Will it ever end?
About the only good, refreshing thing about Israel summer is the many kinds of fruit that flood the shuk.
Even these Siamese-twin peaches.

(I once read that  double peaches are thought to be caused by drought stress at the time of flower bud formation.)
