Lemons
Our Lemon Tree. This forty year old tree is a steady producer and bears lemons all year round.
We use them for cooking and they make delicious lemonade.
We give away the vast majority, so if you're in the area stop by we'll gladly give you a bag of lemons to take with you.

My take on the challenge is 30 foods I like to eat.

That is a dream to have my own lemon tree. It is too cold in here.

Wish we could grow lemons in Texas! My friend in Arizona was overrun with lemons the last time I visited.

Lots of lovely detail in here Walter - and a super composition with the ripe and not-so-ripe lemon providing a lovely colour contrast...
Michael J. Parkinson17-Sep-2009 02:20
I can only begin to wonder what fresh lemons taste like. Great colour composition Walter.
Cindi Smith17-Sep-2009 01:16
Oh, I love it! Wish I could do that here but I'd need a greenhouse. Wonderful shot and when I get back to CA, I'll be asking for a bag! LOL!

NEat shot of the rare lemon/lime tree! Very few of these around....LOL

Beautiful! I really like good lemonade.
J. Scott Coile16-Sep-2009 23:16
Oh the advantages of living in a more "mild climate"!

I can almost smell the fresh lemon - well done.

A dream! To have lemon trees in my garden!!! So I'll pass by... Very nice shot.

Lemons are such a versatile fruit. Good in tea, gin, Corona.
Great squeezed on fresh New Zealad Blue Cod and the best oysters in the world from Bluff.

I was interested to hear you enjoy Vegemite, Walter...a man with fine taste !!! :)
Luscious lemons, delicious with warm honey when winter ills strike the chest :)

Every since I was a child, I've always thought it must be wonderful to have lemons growing
in your garden.
Bernard Davis16-Sep-2009 17:26
Nice shot, the green ones are not ripe I assume?
Linda Willets16-Sep-2009 16:14
Sadly my lemon tree dies after being struck by lighting.. Miss it allot. Lemon pie is good also.
LynnH16-Sep-2009 16:13
How colorful!! I love the smell of citrus blossoms. My lemon tree died and I have replaced it with a Satsuma.
Stephanie16-Sep-2009 14:36
I did a double take - at first I thought this was a lemon / lime tree. Ha Ha! Great shot!
I have a super recipe for homemade lemon bread with poppyseeds. I'll be glad to send it to you Walter or any other Pbasers.

Wonderful photo of two lemons in different situations... one is ready for eat and the other one is still immature.
