    We have some huge lime trees behind our house. We moved in in February so I am waiting to see how much of a nuisance the honeydew proves to be over my new flowerbed!

    BUT, OMG, the scent from the trees at the moment is breath taking. I keep popping up the end of the ga4rden and just filling my lungs with the scent of them. I had no idea lime trees flowered and produced such an amazing scent.

    Does anyone know anything about them? When will the dripping start?!!

    I presume you can hear the whole tree buzzing? :)
