We planted a dwarf orange tree last weekend... a blood orange tree. A couple of oranges were already growing on it and I picked one of them this evening.

I cut it open...

... and look at the inside! Orange... but also red!

The orange was pretty small, so I juiced it into a couple of tall shot glasses.

The Mr and I enjoyed delicious fresh squeezed orange juice. About one sip each. ;-) Really tasty though - can't wait until the yield is like our lemon tree!
