In my garden, where I spend my personal time nurturing various plants directly in the fertile soil, I have a resilient all-season Chinese mandarin orange tree. After a period of careful tending, the tree has finally started to bear fruit.
As of today, it has produced two small, firm oranges. While the number is modest, the health of the tree and the quality of the developing fruits are very promising. I believe growing trees directly in the earth provides the most natural and effective environment for them to thrive.
Observing the transition from tiny blossoms to these green fruits is a rewarding experience. It is a testament to the patience required in gardening and the simple satisfaction that comes from seeing consistent effort yield results. I am documenting this small success as a part of my gardening journey.
