I woke up this morning and put out the dog..... I was pleasantly surprised to see some new blossoms on my orange tree and my lime tree and then...... I realized that my young lime tree, my creme de la creme of the garden has one of it's large branches broken.
I thought about calling off of work to tend to the tree, but alas I could not. I rushed home to mend the tree, which entailed wrapping brown twine around the branch. I am hoping it will heal. To date, my bumper citrus crop for the last season has been 1 orange, which was partially eaten by a worm and 1 lime that was the size of ping pong ball. It is not looking so good for my future aspirations of farming, but we will see what next season brings.
