Late August, the sun is shining longer each day, the coldest part of winter is behind, the grass is growing longer each day, the mandarins will soon be picked. All this on WPD. August 2024.

I was seeking information related to growing macadamia trees. This is one funny and surprising search result. The photo is of mandarins, as is the text below the photo. Yates, www.yates.com.au , is a well known and respected horticulture and gardening supply business which has been around way longer than me. The date and time in the photo title tells when I saw this. August 2022. Click on the photo to view large.

After making marmalade from most of our mandarin harvest my wife made a mandarin cheesecake topped with segments in jelly. Sorry, there are no photos of served pieces, it was eaten quickly :). September 2016.

The mandarins are ready to harvest. They are not as good as last season, a little smaller and a little dryer. The winter was colder for longer this year than the past few, may be an issue. September 2015

An azalea planted by a previous owner which has survived the care and attention we've given it. September 2015.

Picking time is nearly here. July 2014.

Fruit are starting to ripen. April 2014.

Testing, testing, testing 1 2 3.

The pips of the mandarins are placed in a loose woven cloth and cooked with the fruit to assist the setting of the finished product. A cable tie is used to hold the pips in place.

Some of the bottles of mandarin marmalade from earlier batches.

Smell the marmalade my wife is cooking! It's cut up, sugar added at the whim of the cook (recipes are for the timid), brought to pressure and held for a few minutes them left to cook as it cools.
