Meyer Lemon



Here is a picture (click image to enlarge) of the lemons that fell from the Meyer Lemon tree.

At the end of the summer, the Meyer Lemon tree was brought inside and placed in front of a window in the living room. The tree re-bloomed in the house, but did not set fruit. However, the three lemons that hung from the tree dropped to the floor this month (December). I used one lemon (juice) in some homemade guacamole dip and another lemon was used in some shrimp scampi I prepared.

I harvested the seeds from one lemon and plan on starting a Meyer Lemon tree soon. Most citrus trees are self-pollinating, even indoors.
