Citrus Blossoms |
Her chief concern was for the small citrus trees. We're still not sure exactly what they are (see Of Lemons and Limes and When Life Hands You Lemons...), but they've been blooming their little hearts out lately, and we'd hate to see all those blossoms ruined by frost.
So after dinner we trooped outside, armed with flashlights and a light fabric material to cover the plants.
They looked a bit ghostly in the moonlight when the plants were all wrapped up, but at least they should be protected from frost.
Maybe someday they'll actually produce enough fruit for us to figure out what kind of citrus plants they are.
