Menton's Orange Trees


Yes, it's that time of year again.  The streets of Menton are lined with orange trees and that means the 'Fete du Citron' can't be far away.  In fact it starts on the 16th February - this year's theme, 'Around the World in 80 Days.'

Oui , voici revenu  ce moment de l'année. Les rues de Menton sont bordées d'orangers et cela signifie que la « Fête du Citron" n'est plus loin. En fait, elle commence le 16 Février - le  thème de cette année, « Le tour du monde en 80 jours. »

  4. Thanks everyone for the comments. Jeanne, I remember trying to grow lime and grapefruits when I lived in Cairns. Oranges and lemons worked, not the limes or the grapefruits. I never knew why. Great mangos tho! You will be able to grow wondrous things in your Saigon climate I'm sure.
