I can only guess that it’s been too rainy for the orange harvesters to do their work. At least around here (haven’t been out to other barrios lately) the trees are still full of ready-to-fall-off oranges. They’re still nice to look at for the moment but things could get ugly soon enough. Nobody wants three millions kilos of rotting fruit on the ground. And no, they aren’t for eating.

When it comes to choosing an emblematic image for Sevilla it has to be the orange. The more than 40,000 orange trees lining the streets and squares throughout the city provide both shade and beauty, and for those few glorious weeks in early spring the air is filled with the delicate scent of azahar when the trees are in blossom.
The Sevilla Hotel Association’s 23rd Jornadas Gastronómicas will take place October 10th to November 10th with 29 establishments participating with a special dish or menu paying homage to the Sevilla Orange.

They’re so cute! Did you know that when the leaf on an orange tree has that little extra segment attaching it to the branch that means it’s a bitter orange tree? Sweet orange tree leaves are just in one piece. 🍊🧡
