I have been wanting a Lemon Tree for a while now but did realise that until we were out here full time to mind it and keep it watered and safe from frost it would be a bad idea.
Last week I managed to pursuade Síle that the time was ripe and we went looking and bought the one above.
It is not bearing any fruit but has the promise of same with lots of Lemon Flower buds.
I will keep you informed of its progress.

on March 19, 2010Being able to have my own lemon tree was one of the great benefits of living in NZ. Lemons never tasted better than when picked straight from the branch. Even the tiny, misshapen ones got preserved and used up in Moroccan dishes and salads. No problem with having to scrub the wax off!
