A critical touch and a splash of green joy in my home, and this goes beyond plants.
Greetings to all my friends who are part of this great community and enjoy nature as much as I do. Today I started looking at my plants and I said to myself, I have to share this because it's really true that having plants at home is something we sometimes don't appreciate. But this is therapy that doesn't disconnect us from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and connects us with the most enjoyable part of life: nature.
And if there's one plant that no good Venezuelan home should be without, it's a mango tree or a lemon tree. Today, I'm going to share some photos of this lemon tree, which is bearing fruit again.
For some people, having a lemon tree is like having a king in their backyard, as many use it for drinks such as herbal tea and even to accompany their alcoholic beverages. Others, like me, normally use it to make a good fried fish dish or to make that delicious and refreshing lemon juice. This tree not only beautifies the space with its bright green leaves and white flowers that perfume the breeze, but it is also an indispensable supplier of If you want lemon juice for your soup, there it is, and that's what this great plant is for.
And the qualities of lemon go beyond its use in the kitchen. This robust plant, with just a little care and a lot of sun, has grown and is giving me these fruits. And if I mention its decorative value, it is a beauty. When the black lemon tree is laden with those yellow fruits contrasting with that intense green, it creates a focal point that invites anyone to feel in a fresh environment. Furthermore, the presence of that plant gives us a citrus scent that is pure energy, making it impossible to forget Sunday mornings and the taste of home.
Now, when I talk about caring for these plants, I can refer to it as a Zen moment, seeing how new leaves sprout, how the little flowers appear that will later become lemons, a pod that fills us with spirit, like a reminder that with patience and perseverance, life will always give us something good. And if you are thinking of giving your home a little love, don't hesitate. I recommend that you always get a lemon tree. I am sure that not only you will have a beautiful tree, but also an inexhaustible source of flavor, aroma, and very good energy.
So, let's get planting! Green really does go wonderfully with everything.
