I'm not sure about types of citrus fruits on the photos at Palmapedia,

Page 1:
1.1 photo bellow grapefruit following the text "i ostalo"
1.2 photo following the text "evo i kumkvati (između ostalog)"
Small trees are kumquats, what could be the bigger ones?

Page 2:
2.1 photo following the text "...drugi je desno ispod natpisa hotel"
The tree in the middle could be kumquat, what could be the tree on the right (yellow fruits) ?

Can you comment on those?

BTW:
About the place: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4p3GTQkLDU&feature=related

Mountain above Orebic is Sv. Ilija (961 meters).
