orange tree

Hi Dave,

Speaking of citrus, this is one of my two miniature orange trees. It is the younger one.

I put them outdoors today in these twin pots.

I adore the scent from the blossom and the miniature fruits are so dinky.

We eat the fruits only for a dare as they as as bitter as death!

They are going to get a cold first night out, hope it doesnt mean the fruit falls off.

Oooh Rachel, take them in. Just for tonight. It's to improve from tomorrow.

Yikes, think you might have a point, folks. Going to fetch them now.

Wouldn't dare put my one out in this area. But...I have had the Olives out for about a month and they seem to be coping.

Ah Rachel, thank you so much for that, nice to see! looks great, remember talking to you earlier in the year about these little orange trees, would like to try more citrus fruits, but preferably ones that are easy on the tongue!!
