The Ponkan tree is MUCH larger than the last time I saw it. I think I know what you are going to eating everyday for the next few weeks.

For every ponkan you see there are five or six more under the leaves. Those limbs hanging down should actually be about 15 to 20 feet up in the air, but the weight of the fruit is pulling them over. I estimate there are 1000 pieces of fruit on the tree. We have already given away about 100. Come and get some. Thanks Carey for posting this. love, Aunt Arlen

When are you going to start your Poncan delivery service so those of us in the frosty north can appreciate fresh fruit?

Flash - Ponkans are save. The temperature got down to 29 in our back yard this morning. I cut open one ponkan and found no ice crystals so the fruit is saved. Now if I could just find a way to send some to all of you I would, but the state has restrictions on shipping fruit because of our canker and greening diseases. Sorry. love, Aunt Arlen
