Blessed Are The Pollinators
Ah, the sweetest smell of spring. I'm talking about citrus flowers, or orange blossoms if you will. Nothing smells like it and it's heavenly.
Our little citrus grove is in full bloom. Well, the orange and lemon, anyway. The tangelo is still just in bud.
The Cara Cara orange has these gorgeous white flowers.
While the Meyer lemon isn't to be outdone with its pink-tinged flowers.
Last week, I planted some lavender nearby to attract bees.
It may be working. Let's hope these busy pollinators give us a lot of fruit this year.
