Fruit
For Passover this year we bought an orange tree instead of flowers. It turned out to be a bit of a faff because the original tree had beasties living in the soil.
So this is not our authentic Passover tree, but it is the beastie-free replacement, which I am much fonder of!
I’ve always wanted a little orange tree, for some reason it reminds me of this nursery rhyme:
I had a little nut tree, nothing would it bear
But a silver nutmeg and a golden pear;
The King of Spain’s daughter came to visit me,
And all was because of my little nut tree.
I skipped over water, I danced over sea,
And all the birds in the air couldn’t catch me.
Someday soon I’m going to open up one of the little oranges and see what it’s like inside.. I promise I’ll take photos!
