Trees

We had four trees planted a few weeks ago, to join our blessed orange and lemon beauties that came with our home. My dear observant spousal unit was kept in the dark, to see if he would notice the 6-ft or so additions.

He did not.

In his defense, I will say that he's mostly in the backyard to pull out the trashcan, which he does after sundown usually...

Nevertheless, we are now proud parents of a plum tree with lovely white flowers, a pink-flowering peach, an Arizona Sweet orange and a Mexican lime ( for all those caipirinhas and Coronas).

Now all we have to do is wait patiently a few years for fruit to come forth...

Footnote: The source of the Swiss chard in my flower bed has been revealed to be none other than Farmer Bobby, who confessed to prank-planting them when he was putting in the veggie garden. Can't complain.
