Lemon Blossoms


Our small but prolific lemon tree is back in action.  About two years ago, Camp Ramshackle was hit by an exceptional frost.  After that one night of ice, the shriveled blossoms fell and this tree embarked on a long road to recovery.  I was worried it would never fully recuperate.  

I stepped out to pick some lemons today to find the tree blanketed in fragrant blossoms that made me dizzy with their delicious scent.

  1. Oh yea! Our citrus trees are on the very brink of blooming. One very old and usually fruitless tree is covered in white buds. I can't wait to see it in full bloom. Good luck with the lemons. I'll tell the bees to get on over to your place.
