"Kung hay fat choi"
January 23rd is the Chinese New Year! It's the year of the Dragon! Alden Lane has stocked a few special items typically used to decorate for Chinese New Year to invite good fortune into our house and yours. 
Kumquats
Kumquats are also used to celebrate Chinese New Year as they are becoming fully ripe during the late winter months. The Chinese name for Kumquat translates to "Gold Luck" and Alden Lane has several varieties to choose from. This highly prized hardy citrus plant bears heavy crops of small fruits that are eaten skin and all. They can also be made into delicious jams, preserves, and relishes. Bring home good fortune and "Gold Luck" with a Kumquat.

Buddha's Hand
As a special treat we are currently offering the Buddha's Hand Citron. The fruit is traditionally brought inside and placed in a bowl for their wonderful fragrance. The fruit has virtually no pulp but can be sliced and candied in syrup for a unique treat. This is definitely a "conversation piece" in the garden so plant it somewhere it can be appreciated by guests. The gnarly fruit forms finger-like sections that resemble a hand and can bear quite heavily during this time of year.
