Here's a shot of my Eureka lemon tree. It still has fragrant blooms. It's been flowering for a while now, so I guess that means, it bear ripe fruit for a while too. We'll see.

A True Lemon (eureka lemon)
"The true lemon (Eureka & Lisbon types) is not recommended for home use because of its susceptibility to scab," or at least, so says IFAS Extension. I don't have scab on my citrus, but I guess that's because I have a pretty good maintenance routine.

What a beautiful, healthy looking plant.
ReplyDeleteThanks for putting your finger next to the fruit or I would have been totally deceived. It is a perfectly shaped gem of a lemon. HMMM... seems like I've made a contradiction in terms there, but you get my drift!
ReplyDeleteI got one for Christmas 2008 - planted soon after - looking healthy - can't wait to see the flowers - hope mine grows well and looks as good as this one - it's really beautiful !
