Summer valencias, just hanging in there. Horrible looking but a productive survivor nonetheless.

Bearss lime in very shaded area but blooming and quite productive too. These guys tolerate some shade in the alleyway of two houses, which in turn they are protected by the alleyway from freezing frosts during winter.

It is going to rain Melogold next year from my 45-n-1 citrus tree. If it doesn't break. May have to thin these out or put a lot of support.

Vainiglia Sanguigno start of fruit filling phase. I'm going to thin these out, and heavily. The fruit sets are like these all over the grafted branches which occupies 25% of the canopy. I will wait till marble size before snipping some of them off, otherwise it will break my tree. Finally there are enough to share with others. I will have a full crop of these blood (not really, but more like pinkish) or pigmented oranges this season.

Ummm....very very nice.
Don't we love Spring. It seems that everything are all waking up including the grass in my yard! I may have to do something this summer with them.
