Lemon tree still trying to make lemons.

Couple of these are actually yellow. I figured they would start green and then turn yellow???

These started green.

Odd. Mine were green for a long time, as they grew bigger. Only turned yellow when they ripened. (took awhile). Are they rotting, or about to drop off?

There are only 2 bigger ones but they are still small. Not sure how big they get but the one bigger one is only the size of a strawberry. Not rotting or about to fall off. Very ripe.

Is it a dwarf?

Not that I know. Grafted Meyer Lemon Tree is all I know. To me looks like they just need to grow more.

Those yellow ones are probably about to drop off. My lemon routinely produces more fruitlets than it can actually support, and winds up dropping a good chunk of them. They turn yellow when they're about that size, the stem dries, and they drop.

I think I did see a small yellow one on the ground.

Stopped growing for a while and is now growing again. Pretty cool seeing it produce fruit.

You encouraged me to grow a Citrus [ Khaimraj - brother-in-law to Anthony ]
The Portugal is our small of leaf citrus and the fruit is edible and peels
by hand.

That's from K.
Good Day

That's great. I bet between your knowledge and where you live it will grow real well.

Nice!

I started using this to keep my citrus happy, so far I’m not impressed but I didn’t add quite as much as they recommend yet. Whatever you use seems to be working well though.

Few pictures of the lemons.

Super slow growing but looking like a lemon tree. Its just now starting to push some green now. Hasn't all summer.

 

[c54fun]

This gives you an idea of the size so far of this tree. Its starting to put on more green finally.

Time to plan some craft cocktails!!!

But I'd probably just cut slices and throw 'em in a Margarita!!

I haven't re searched what to do with a lemon tree in Texas this winter. All new to me for sure. Need to read up on it.

 

[Carol 83]

Here, I have to bring the citrus in for the winter, which surprisingly they don't object to very much.
