In modern times, when obtaining an orange, year-round, is as easy as making a quick trip to the grocery store, we may forget that fresh citrus was once a distinctly wintry treat. In the days before artificial lighting, of short days and cold nights, those colorful, sweet-smelling citrus fruits must’ve seemed like little balls of sunshine. So it’s no surprise, really, that there’s a close association between citrus and Christmas decor, particularly of the more traditional kind. Citrus at Christmas is starting to enjoy great popularity once again, and for good reason—it’s beautiful, it’s inexpensive, and it will make your home smell great.
