Somehow last week's hectic-ness is spilling over into this week. This is lunch at my desk while blogging and doing my homework assignment on color. (My lunch is a giant hunk of smoked salmon and meyer lemon from my tree! A lazy person's lunch...)
I've been trying to grow a dwarf Meyer lemon for about 2 years now and while I have not killed it yet, it is slow going. I think I either overwater and the buds fall off or I don't water enough and they fall off. Right now, it's got 2 little lemons that have stayed that size for over 6 months. They turned yellow over winter but I'm convinced it's not because they are ripe...
you have a lemon tree??? i'm seriously envious.
ReplyDeletekay--yes you can grow a meyer lemon tree in a pot and it will produce lemons even when it's only a foot and a half tall!
