March in Arizona is Heaven!

There is nothing better than fruit fresh from the tree and we are still up to our chins in fresh citrus. But this month starts the new growing season even before all of last years fruit is off the trees.

Just two days ago you could smell it in the air when you opened the windows. The citrus blossoms have bloomed and they are heavenly. Not only are they beautiful but the air has the constant heavey scent of the blossoms. I remember the first March I was here I was shocked at how wonderful the smell is everywhere you go. I have grown up around fruit trees my whole life but nothing prepared me for this.
I always tell people that this is the best month to visit but no one listens so I will just keep enjoying the beauty, weather and smell of March without them! March is really like heaven here in AZ!

I agree 100% girl. I tell everyone here that March is the greatest month to go to AZ simply because of the Orange blossoms. I have to settle for the Gold Canyon candle which I burn every March now. It is simply devine and reminds me of Mesa in March.
