Orange Trees

Another step forward for Sicily, the orange groves. my period map shows quite a few orchards around Lentini so I hope these will provide sufficient for my big game needs.

The basic trees came from China via ebay and were based on foamcore. One thing I should have done was spray the trees with fixative (hairspray) first, rather than last, to reduce the lost of fruit and foliage.

Smart looking trees - is the soldier in the foreground drinking a nice refreshing cup of OJ?

What a great idea! Using hairspray to keep foliage on!? Who'd a thunk it!
