Pomegranates are always the last to burst into life. Their flower buds are the last to form, the last to open, their fruit the latest to appear and last to be picked. I like the way they are out of kilter with the orchard fruit: pomegranates and figs are the only fruit which grow wild in our valley. We do nothing to them, and we share their harvest with the birds. 5 to remember
el último – the last
el huerto – the orchard
estar estropeado/a – to be out of kilter
crecen salvajes – they grow wild
compartir algo [con alguien] – to share something [with someone]
