My miho fruit is starting to be good enough to eat already. Not real sweet but definitely tasty. This seems to be my earliest. Seto is not as ready nor is xie shan.

Tried my Miyagawa yesterday, just a touch of yellow blushes across a dark green background, very plump, juicy and tender, but lacked sweetness. I think it is still about two weeks out. Miho and Xie Shan are still very green and firm in southeast Ga.

In Northeast Georgia my Owari Satsumas are just starting to get a tinge of orange.

My Sunburst is starting to show some color. Especially the ones on top. Something had knocked one off and while it was beautiful inside it obviously needed more time to flavor up. It was juicy though.

EDIT 9/7/12
My Xie Shan tree has two fruit starting to color on the lower part of the tree.
