Citrus Update

Our new fruit trees flowered, and now have little fruits on them. Mom's tree has probably a couple dozen.

I hope they survive. Having fresh grapefruit I can go out and pick whenever I want this winter would be wonderful.

Seeing these tiny fruits makes me remember my grandmother, too. She would pick grapefruit from the tree in our backyard and make English marmalade from them.

Dad's orange tree had a couple baby fruits on them, but sadly one just fell off. The rest may do the same.

The single orange that survived the transplanting is still okay, so maybe we'll have that one this winter.
