#WW – When Life Gives You Lemons…
previous post
Eat them! We just tried the ones from our dwarf Meyer Lemon tree – juicy and a tad sweet. When repotting, use cactus soil for good drainage and vitamins (thanks OSH lady).

Those are beautiful to the point they almost dont look real.
I know, right?
Those are fabulous!
In look and taste 🙂
Wow, those lemons are so bright!
Yes – they are such a vibrant, beautiful yellow! Plus, the green leaves are a perfect contrast!
They’re too pretty to eat!
Well, not THAT pretty 😛 We ate some!
So pretty! I bet they make awesome lemonade.
I’ll have to do that next. We only have about six so I’m trying not to take them all off at once 😛
They look amazing!
They grew through the winter and turned out fantastic!
those look delicious! (and beautiful!)
Thank you and thank you 🙂
I’ve never seen lemons look so good!
Me neither – and I can barely believe their on our tree!
Those do look awful tasty!
I should have taken a pic of the inside as well – JUICY!
Those look delicious!!
So far we’ve only eaten a few of them straight – so nice with a dash of salt!
I wish we could grow lemons here. I use them all the time.
Well, we had a weird winter and these grew from basically October – February!
I cannot wait to order my tree!! I will be ordering other plants too but I am excited about the lemons!
Oh and this tree has been SOOOO easy to maintain. In fact, I’ve actually been neglecting it and need to get some fertilizer 😛
Jealous…great shot!
When my tree grows a bit more, I’ll have to send you some 🙂
Wow, they are just beautiful! I need to get one of these trees!
Don’t forget to get the Meyer Lemon – sweeter and juicier 🙂
I would love to have a fruit bearing tree, what a great picture
This was surprisingly easy. Before we moved, I was even going to just leave it but my mom said “No Way!” and dug it up for me. I’m so glad she did 🙂
I wish I had a green thumb because these look great!
Oh, these poor things have been totally neglected with only an occasional water. They are really hearty!
Looking good! Our Meyer Lemon is full of blossoms this year. We are hoping for a good crop.
Exciting! We only have about three lemons left on this so I hope more blossoms will be coming!
They look great 🙂
Thank you! We only have a few so I had to document it before we ate them all 😛
Awesome! Love Meyer lemons!
Now I do too! No wonder people rave about them!
What awesome lemons!
Thanks! Even though they are really that vivid, the sunlight was hitting them just right to accentuate the colors!
Those are beautiful. Yummy!!
Oh, yes, quite yummy 🙂
Ohhhh I love it. I’ve always wanted to grow one but I’m not sure I can up here in the north.
Well, these grew during our crazy winter so they may just make it.
Very cool, I have never tried to grow lemons.
These were surprisingly easy, especially since there were already several blossoms on the tree when we bought it.
How great to have fresh lemons!
We love it. We only wish we had more as the tree only bore about 7-8 lemons so far.
Those look delicious. I wish I had fresh lemons. I want to learn how to garden and a tree would be gorgeous in my yard.
This tree is soooo easy to care for. Maybe it’s a good place to start 🙂
YUM. I want to squeeze one of those into a diet coke…mmmm.
Oh? I never tried that. Is it good? Does it work with non=diet coke?
Yum! I love lemons- I bet fresh ones like those are so much better even!
Totally! They are so juicy and are just bursting with flavor!
Such a beautiful vibrant photo!
Are the colors great? The sun was hitting it just right 🙂
Great shot! I want one of those trees. 🙂
We bought ours at OSH when it was on sale for about $30 or so. I can’t wait to see how it fares during spring!
Beautiful photo! My hubby makes the best fresh squeezed lemonade… I’m actually drinking it now.
I need his recipe! For some reason, I always fail at homemade lemonade…
