Harvest
I had to harvest these off of our calamondin tree which is indoors this time of year. Usually we can harvest a few each day for drinks or cooking, but our trip meant that all were harvested and went into a plastic bag in the freezer. Now we will use them as ice cubes in our drinks. They are smaller than a golf ball...

I never heard of these! I'll look for them; they look at lot like mandarin oranges. :-)
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of them before. Thanks for the education this morning.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of them but they sound useful. I don't have houseplants anymore although I used to consider them part of the necessary decor. I just eventually lost them all and decided I didn't care enough to replace them. Last year I didn't even have potted plants on the patio. Not sure I will this year either. I am getting lazy ;)
ReplyDeletelike everyone else, never heard of them. they look like little tangerines.
ReplyDeleteThey make me happy just to look at them.
ReplyDeleteThey are sour like lemons but havve a more orangery flavor. Not edible like tangerines
ReplyDeleteVery common here in Hawaii, and they make fine preserves.
ReplyDeleteWe eat Clementines or Cuties so I guess they are the same thing. They peel very easily and don't have seeds.
ReplyDeleteNOT the same thing. Clementines are delicious and can be eaten out of hand, but calamondins are more like a lime.
DeleteYou introduced us to something new today. Like many of the others, I have never heard of them before.
ReplyDeleteThey look tart and my mouth puckers just looking at them.
ReplyDeleteAre they like kumquats? We have those, and i love them!
ReplyDeleteI had to google your fruit. I have never heard of them before. Sort of a mini orange/kumquat. Fun.
ReplyDeleteAlso new to me. They move in and out with the seasons? Maybe a possible Florida plant? I have to do some research now.
ReplyDeleteI'll be curious to buy one for a taste if I every run across any.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of a calamondin fruit. It looks so interesting.
