Citrus time - Seville Oranges - Marmalade and the seeds

January 2020

Last year I had no success with growing citrus stock from seeds so time to try again.   Buy fresh Seville Oranges at the beginning of their season rather than at the end. Its only a few weeks so act fast.

I bought a couple of kilos of Seville Oranges, removed the pips for cultivating and made marmalade with the rest.

The seeds before removing the outer shell

Some of the seeds with the shells removed.   Ready for putting in the propagator.

Meanwhile - making the marmalade

and three hours later

and another four or five hours later...
