The Ovale of Sorrentino is already to see on 2000 year old antique Roman Mosaics ... So all lemons come from Italy ...

Citrus is believed to have originated in southeast Asia, not Italy. _________________ Wal-Mart a great place to buy cheap plastic crap ! http://walmartwatch.com/ ...

I know ... ... but I better trust on mosaics I see with my own eyes than on some believes ... Besides ... citrus is coltivated in China for many thousand years, so it could be originate also from there even if the Romans had it already 2000 years ago ... There was always a strong trade on the silk road between europe and china.
