  6. Such delicate blossoms and I know the scent is heavenly too. That picture of them basking in the sun by the window is really wonderful. Images of winter winding down.

  7. P.S. I love the Little People person in the background, feels just like home.

  8. I'm assuming this is your meyer lemon tree? Cool, i'd like to have one of those. However, we don't have any south-facing windows.....darn....

  9. Very nice. The new fruit coming already is pretty cool. I'm so ordering one of these this spring, it can be friends with my lonely lemon.

  10. Beautiful photos of your Meyer lemon. I never really appreciated my Meyer lemon until I read your blog about making Meyer lemon marmalade. Now I use the Meyer lemons in cooking all the time. You've changed my life, Thomas.

  11. Thanks for your comments everyone.

    Vrtlarica - yes, most times I will get a fruit from each flower that has a stigma but many will fall off the tree as it can only support so many.

  12. Oh, I'm so loving your meyer lemon tree! What is your secret to getting it to bloom. Mine has not bloomed in almost 3 years!

  13. Thomas, while I really like my Meyer Lemon trees, I LOVE my new Bearss Lime. It seems bullet-proof and much easier to grow indoors -- at least in my climate.

    Here are some pics of my Meyer lemons: http://www.tallcloverfarm.com/got-lemons-its-easy-to-grow-your-own/
