A big thanks to Haji Mike from the island of Cyprus for his spring garden update.
“The smell of citrus fruits in the garden this time of the year is heavenly and intoxicating. Just sitting in the garden day or night and taking in those aromas is like paradise.
We have three in all, tangerine (above), lemon and orange. They are young trees so for the first few years not much fruit has grown. Things look different this year though.
The lemon above is one that blooms 3 times in a season.
And the orange above is known as Shekeriko, a tree common mainly in Cyprus. It yields small oranges packed with the living perfumed flavour. Be warned eat two or more and the acid gets to you…
Deep breaths mean time and meditations…. Haji Mike”
Thanks to Mike for the piece and pics and for choosing this apt tune from Maxi Priest.
