Volunteer plants springing everywhere are very common here in Southern California with our mild climate. Some papaya seeds the chickens never got to grew up to be fruit bearing papaya trees!
And we picked our first tiny treat this morning!
Sweet and delicious, we usually enjoy this fruit with a sprinkling of salt and a squeeze of lime from our always pregnant with blooms lime trees.
It’s such a treat to find unexpected gifts in my garden!
Have any volunteer plants surprised you lately?
