Wild Orange by Janie Petyarre

The small compact tree of the atwakeye (Capparis mitchellii) grows about 3½ m high. It has dark green leathery leaves and its creamy white flowers open during the night and wither before the end of the next day. The wild oranges hang down on long stalks, turning a yellow green tint when ripe. They usually ripen from October through January depending on seasonal conditions.

The ancestral dreaming story for the atwakeye belongs to Jane's country, Ngkwelay in the Utopia region.
