Pear Tree?

[veggiechicken]

1 - Apple
2 - currant
3 - currant - could be the same as 2. Rub the leaves - if they smell of blackcurrant it is. If both bushes smell the same - they're the same (red and white currants smell the same - but different to blackcurrants)
4 - gooseberry or worcesterberry. Both are thorny.
5 - dunno

[Guest]

My guesses are -

1. apple
2. white/red currant
3. currant (is there a smell from the leaves or branches when rubbed?)
4. gooseberry
5. honeyberry (are there any berries lurking?)

Quiz time

1. I'd veer towards apple. But could be crab apple or pear I suppose
2 & 3. Currant or currant/gooseberry hybrid.
4. Gooseberry


Not a clue on 5.

You have what may be Currant Blister Aphid showing on image4

wow thanks all, everyone seems to be on the same page with some slight variations.. I will give the suspected berries a rub and see if they have a smell to them.. was nice to inherit something useable on the new patch, I think I will add a few other fruit bushes/plants in that section and allow it to be a little wild and let it grow out a bit, I like my beds and paths to be a bit clinical but would be nice to have a little section to encourage the bees and wildlife a bit, anyone else have a wild area?

[veggiechicken]

All of my garden is a wild area - especially the fruity bits

Just rub the leaves, rather than risk damaging the berries. If it's blackcurrant the leaves will smell strongly of black currant. I have mine next to the path and every time I walk past the smell of Ribena wafts up as I brush past the leaves.

Just to add to it all:
Apple,
Currant - if I had to opt then Red Currant,
Another Currant - possibly the same = Red.
Gooseberry.
Half recognise the 5th, do not think it is a fruit as such. Half would expect small yellow/orange spherical "fruit" to appear.

The fruit looks like Apple but confusing, as it looks more like a Pear in growth habit.

[fishpond]

this is the second one

Looks like a Currant of some type
