Seedlings

The more mature seedlings are being moved out of the greenhouse to mabe way for the newly budded ones.
This year we have about 700 grapefruit and about 1000 tangerines as well as a few varieties of oranges lemons and limes. My feeling is that we will have about 5000. New lemon seeds for rootstock are collected to begin the process all over again. Wonderful.
We do avacado, papaya, guava and peaches as well as
Pears, Neem, Moringa, and loads of bananas.

Miriam's baby boy has gone home to his grandmother's village to be buried today. Grandmother came and brought them, and tradition is that the women do the funeral. Miriam's husband and Stanley stayed at home. Miriam will stay and be cared for in the next few days. So sad. I have passed on all your good wishes.
