Both those trees have produced lots of tiny fruit. The third one had been producing fewer, but, larger fruits until last year, when it produced lots! This year, it is back to being fewer fruits. I think the amount of rain we get probably has something to do with it!

I opened the door and he rushed towards it making a lot of angry chittering so I looked around to see if his rival was nearby. No sign of any other and the little guy rushed off grumpily with the peanut I gave him. Later I thought about it and wondered if he was mad at me for getting up late?

...I am feeling better, today, thank you, Eileen. <br /><br />I think kiwi will grow in my garden, but, I'd need some sort of a structure for it to climb on. I was also thinking of passion fruit, but, again, I'd need a fence or trellis for it. You might need a little greenhouse for citrus; an "orangerie". :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-12344723842567658262020-11-21T13:00:11.852-08:002020-11-21T13:00:11.852-08:00It really is nice to be able to grow at least some...It really is nice to be able to grow at least some food in our gardens.
