When we moved into our house almost seventeen years ago, the slope in our property was converted into a fruit orchard by my husband, digging every inch by inch. It all started with a few fruit trees; now it is filled with more than seventy exotic fruit trees. Other than citrus, almost all the trees are bursting with fruit. Citrus and guavas yield fruit in winter.
Flowering trees such as crape myrtles and bougainvilleas bring burst of color to the orchard
