It's a hybrid, Joan. Probably Thomasville Citrangequat or something like that. I've got a Satsuma mandarin tree in my yard. We have gobs of hybrid citrus growing outside in parts of Norfolk, Va Beach that are old too and very edible. Yall have an enormous amount there i'm sure.
Kumquats of some variety. We have a small kumquat tree (looks a little topiary like actually) and it has been loaded with them this year. Very tasty - sweet and tart simultaneously. And you know what's weird is that you eat the whole thing!
Easter eggs?
ReplyDeleteLove it! Brilliant!
DeleteI was going to say persimmon. Then Kate's answer made more sense.
ReplyDeleteI want a picture of a Cadbury tree, though!
Oh, I do too! I have been pacing myself but I am out of Cadbury's eggs. It was a sad evening.
DeleteLooks to be a kumquat. :-)
ReplyDeleteThose are the ubiquitous "Low Hanging" fruit. They are usually the first to be picked because they are easy to reach.
ReplyDelete;)
S
They are! A toddler could pick these.
DeleteDennis Rodman?
ReplyDeleteAll I know is they are not oranges.
ReplyDeleteRight. They are a different shape and hang down. I think they might be kumquats.
