Lemon Blossom and Orange Blossom

Which is which? 
Lemon blossom buds have lavender on the outside. 
Oranges are all white. 
Take a look!

Flying Dragon Citrus Nursery

Love this place.  This is the Citrus Nursery we went to last year.  We have gorgeous smelling blossoms right now!  They do field trips to schools, have classes, playgroups, womens groups and homeschool groups visit.  You can tour, talk and taste.

They also provide citrus to local historical parks: Alpine Grove Park, Walter Jones Historical Park.

Citrus Shopping on Sundays


We found a lovely little citrus nusery and on the weekend took the kids to experience it. It was beautiful and anyone in the south should spend at least one afternoon just smelling orange blossoms.

The proprietors were three older men, all different characters supported by Honey, the sweetest dog ever. They have have coloring sheets, Woodpeckers and juicers.

We found finding the information on citrus was fun, easy, enjoyable and wandering was magical.
The only difficult task was paying ... there was always another story, another variety, another rare bird that flew by. Paying meant we had to leave,and neither the customers nor the owners were pushing that along.

I recommend stopping by to slowly walk through this little grove of The Flying Dragon Citrus Nursery
