Almost self-sufficient

Check out what we've got growing in our yard.


When we first moved here, I thought this was a lime tree. There were so many "limes" on the tree, I picked them when they were bright green to use as my green decor for the kitchen. And to attempt to find use out of them for cooking. Turns out I prematurely picked tangerine oranges. It's a Tangerine Tree! We get so many and it's that time of year where they are almost ripe.


Our Apple Banana Tree. We need to pick these before the birds get to them.


Cotton Tree? What? For the longest time we were wondering why there was so much cotton on the lawn. We thought that the neighbor's dog liked to chew up patio furniture or dolls and the cotton would just blow into our yard. I'm still not convinced that this is real cotton, it's probably something poisonous so if you know what this is, let us know! Or if you get sick from one of our Arkotec pillows, please let us know.
