Look at this very proud grandpa posing next an indoor orange tree he grew from a seed

Grandpa was dedicated to the oranges
By Jordan Bowman  on 

If only we all could be so proud of our accomplishments.

There's something incredibly endearing about this photo of Nicole Casarez's grandpa standing next to his perfect orange tree. She posted photos of him on Sunday because her grandfather wanted to memorialize the moment before church.

He strikes that classic grandpa pose, which consists of the hands at the side and the perfect grin. It perfectly says 'look at this fruit I grew in my house.'

We have to commend his ability to grow an orange indoors. This process had to consist of some trial and error because caring for a plant, especially a fruit tree, is no small feat. I can barely get a cactus to survive in my room and they barely need anything.

This guy looks like he barely even tried.

Of course grandpa has some doubters but still the orange tree continued to prosper.

Apparently after retiring grandpa dedicated his time towards growing more plants.

We hope grandpa and the orange tree continue flourishing this year.
