Hi Steemians,
For today's contribution I'm sharing this pic of the pomelo fruit.
It's close to Chinese New Year, so may notice an abundance of fruits such as pomelo, oranges, grapes, plums and kumquats - all having their special meanings and beliefs for this time of the year.
Did you know?
This year, Chinese New Year will land on Friday February 16th, 2018.
This year is the year of the Dog.
Chinese New Year is the longest holiday in China, spanning up to 15 days.
The pomelo fruit is known as the 'king of citrus'
What do Chinese New Year fruits signify?
Pomelo - Good luck and family unity
Mandarin/Orange - Abundance and happiness
Grapes, plums, kumquats - Good luck and prosperity
Citrus fruits promises luck, prosperity and long life, so if you have friends who celebrate this festive season, it's a great gesture to gift them some citrus.
