Mandarins

Mandarins
On Tuesdays I like to show what's happening in one of the gardens.  The mandarins in our Kandos garden are now sweet enough to eat - yum

I've been busy pruning the fruit trees and shrubs too.   Spring is just around the corner, I see buds beginning to appear on the tulips. But right now it’s very wintery, we are back in the mountains from our short soujourn in the city where it was much warmer.

  1. They look absolutely delicious, and what a delightful season for you!

    1. Yes, the beginning of the fruiting season which will run through to the apples in Autumn, provided I can figure out how to deal with fruit fly.

  2. We didn't get many mandarins this year. The cockatoos got to them before us!

    1. We don't see cockatoos much out at Kandos, so my crop has been safe thus far. In the mountains it's a different story but I don't have fruit trees at Burnbrae.

      My crop is however much smaller than last year, which is a bit of blessing because I was overwhelmed with them last year. I am not sure what drives it but there were not that many flowers on one side of the tree so I knew the crop would be down.
