Tangy Juicy Fruit

~ Since I never knew,
  I thought I'd share this with you ~


  No larger than olives or grapes
  They're orange and oval in shape
    They grow on a tree
    And O! Mercy me!
  Tart flavors from kumquats escape!

Indeed. Also, some cooking oranges are very small and tart. My friend grows them in his greenhouse.
