Normally, my Texas satsuma mandarin tree (‘Miho’) puts on fruit every other year. Last October, we picked a good number of mandarins. Then this year – SURPRISE! – it put on two mandarins. I think it's a way of telling us good by. I'm hoping my son's best friend will adopt my tree before the first freeze and rehome it in his new greenhouse. We just can't move it back and forth into our garage any more. Plus, it's really getting big. Believe it or not, I've keep this beauty alive since May 2004, when my son gifted it to me for Mother's Day.
