    My lemon tree is flowering for the second time this year.
    We usually get a nice crop of lemons from it and the smell of the blossom is wonderful.

    Hi fmay.

    I don't know what they call them, but lemon trees (here certainly) fruit and flower all year round. Maybe your climate is suitable to this? My Meyer is fruiting and blooming now.

    Stop showing off LoL....anything will grow in your climate:D However, I did hear that the lemon growers had a bad harvest this year...which accounts for the high price in our shops...well that's what I heard anyway.:thumb:

    No, I didn't grow it from a pip. I've had it for about 4 years now from a garden centre.
