Fresh from the garden....

Freshly picked from the garden, we might have produced more if not for curious chicks pecking at the flowers.

On the left is a Meyer lemon, on the right a Persian lime.

  1. Alright, you've got to elaborate on how you're growing citrus. I would love to have a Meyer lemon. I thought you were in Toney, so a lemon shouldn't be fresh from the garden on January 25th in North Alabama! Thanks!

    1. Hi Chuck,
      I have it in a pot, about a 20 gallon, I used to drag it in the house, place infront of my sunniest window.

      More recently, Hubby built me a small greenhouse, it still rather cold when it hits about 10F, so I do double up on the cold tarps inside the greenhouse or may pull out a heat light.

      It's a small tree still, but great fun to have fresh citrus!
