tangelo (mandarin)

This is killing me too because several of my trees are starting to ripen. On
Sunday I leave the island for a month away! The neighbor scores! Drat.

Powerful greens there - and a nice splodge of purple in the background too :)

Beautiful greens!
J. Scott Coile29-Nov-2007 17:08
At least they won't rot on the tree!
Guest 29-Nov-2007 16:54
Great picture. You're fortunate to live in such a nice climate!

Your neighbor is very lucky... maybe you will have better luck next year.
Great color in this shot.
Guest 29-Nov-2007 13:29
I like the colours an the focus!!!
Guest 29-Nov-2007 12:57
Lovely! I am very envious of you having a fruit tree in your backyard at all. Lucky you!
Cindi Smith29-Nov-2007 12:23
Maybe your neighbor will share??
Guest 29-Nov-2007 12:11
How wonderful to have these growing in your garden,Dave!Love the rich greens!
Faye White29-Nov-2007 11:28
right off the tree - wonderful!
Máire Uí Mhaicín29-Nov-2007 11:11
These look great! Enjoy your month, and you should have a happy and healthy neighbour when you get back!!
Yvonne29-Nov-2007 10:38
If they'll ripen after they're picked, they should store okay during the cooler months. Great shot.
Maaike Huizer29-Nov-2007 10:05
Let's hope they keep them cool for a month. Nice entry.
Tim van Woensel29-Nov-2007 10:05
Love the high contrast colors Dave, although it's not clear to me where the focus is. ;)
laine8229-Nov-2007 09:51
If you cut, leaving some stem & store them in cool storage they should keep for you. Funny, as Tangelos & Mandarins are two differant fruits here. It would take a very strong soul to eat a Tangelo...sour as all get out :>)) All that said it makes a great photo !!
Barry S Moore29-Nov-2007 09:14
Looks delightful. Maybe your neighbour can harvest and keep some in cold storage for you.
Guest 29-Nov-2007 09:11
Love the green, seems so lush!
Barbara Heide29-Nov-2007 08:44
ask the neighbour to take pictures...
nice shot!
Norbert Fortelny29-Nov-2007 07:13
Great!
So different from my neck of the woods (literally!)
Dan Chusid29-Nov-2007 04:05
Hey, but the picture will last longer!
Carinoza29-Nov-2007 03:27
Yummm! Ask your neighbor to ship some to me (no need for it to go to waste!) ... :-p
mathilda williams29-Nov-2007 02:49
nice!
let's hope the neighbour leaves you some for when you return :)
