Frans does keep me on my toes. Today a seven-foot calamansi tree (like a lime, very popular among Filipinos, see Wikipedia article on Calamondin) arrived at our apartment. It’s amazing what you can find in Chinatown – and have delivered to your door!
It’s actually a darn cool tree – there are already five or six fruits on it, and hopefully it will make more. We’ll get it in the ground this weekend.
With things finally slowing down at least a little (and I’m saying this very cautiously, in full knowledge of the mayhem that will be our trip to the Midwest next month), we’ve been able to spend more time in our tiny backyard, cleaning things up and helping things grow. This morning I discovered that one of the zucchini plants had bloomed so I decided to get some photos of the flower as well as the other happy green things living out back.
