Meyer Lemons


I just wanted to share my little "joy of the day" with you.  I have about 70 of these little beauties growing on my Meyer Lemon tree by the pool. Phil and BJ Eubanks gave us this tree a couple of months ago, and it's been such a thrill to see the blooms come out, then followed by little tiny green lemons!  Meyer lemons are unlike any I have ever seen in a grocery store!  They grow extremely large, are very thin-skinned, extremely juicy, and taste sweeter than regular lemons, like a cross between a lemon and an orange....mmm!!
I enjoy seeing the weekly progress of my little green friends, and look forward to sharing pictures of some giant yellow fruit in the future!
