From succulent Cherry varieties like Prunus avium to crisp Apple varieties such as Malus domestica, he had a knack for nurturing nature's bountiful gifts. His Fig varieties, including the luscious Ficus carica, were renowned for their sweetness and delicate texture. Brookshaw's skills extended beyond just fruits; he also excelled in growing melons. Whether it was the refreshing Green flesh or Candia melon from the Cucumis melo species or the vibrant Scarlet flesh rock melon belonging to Cucumis melo cantalupensis, each bite transported one into a world of pure delight.
