Prince Harry and his son Prince Archie have an array of adorable father-son moments released in the Harry & Meghan Netflix docuseries, and one of our favourites has to be the moment the little tot helped his father while orange picking in their family garden at Montecito mansion.

In the adorable clip, shot by Archie's mother Meghan Markle, Harry could be seen on a higher level of ground, picking oranges and then he throws one down to his young son. Archie was seen sporting beige trousers, a white T-shirt and a blue hat for a sunny day outside in August 2020, not long after the family moved into the property.

Meghan could be heard saying: "What's papa doing? Are we getting oranges? Yes, can you put them in the basket."

On the ground, a wicker basket was present already filled with a sufficient haul of citrus fruits.

Another sweet moment in the Netflix show was when Harry carried Archie up the garden steps, showing him the abundant flowers blossoming in their grounds.

Their garden is a highlight of their exclusive estate with its own swimming pool, pond and a vast playpark for the children.

Speaking to The Cut, Meghan revealed that it was a garden feature which sold them on the property in the first place. "One of the first things my husband saw when we walked around the house was those two palm trees. See how they’re connected at the bottom? He goes, 'My love, it's us'," the Duchess said.

Enjoying the great outdoors is perhaps a passion Harry gets from his family as his late grandmother Queen Elizabeth II was known for her love of the British countryside, opting to spend summers at Balmoral walking, horse riding and exploring.

King Charles is also an outdoorsy type, and the green fingered royal is partial to gardening and he also has a focus on sustainable farming at many of his regal residences.
