My little orange tree

My favorite plant is a few small orange trees in my house.

One day last autumn, my mother bought a bag of yellow oranges. After I finished eating the oranges, I found many small seeds in the oranges. I asked my mother: "Mom, is the seed in the orange a seed?" Mom said: "This is its seed." I asked my mother curiously: "Can I plant seeds in the soil to sprout?" Mom encouraged me to say, "You can try it yourself!"

So, I planted it in an empty pot that my father didn't use, watering it and sunning it every day. One day, two days; one month, two months... There is no sign of germination, I am so refreshed, and I have forgotten it slowly. In the spring of the next year, when my mother changed the soil in the pot, she suddenly called me: "Yangyang, come on, the orange tree you planted sprouted!" I ran over with joy, I saw a few drilled on the edge of the flower pot. A tender green and green small bud. I shouted in surprise: "Wow, sprouted, I can eat my own oranges this year!" My mother and I started to change the orange tree for a beautiful little flowerpot. After the summer, the biggest one has grown eleven oval leaves, green and oily, really fascinating.

I have to insist on watering and fertilizing it, waiting for a round orange to come out next year.
