I am so envious, how wonderful to be able to grow outdoors all year, but I will survive here in Minnesota, yah sure, with my citrus, by golly! Laughing

Joe, I bet your yard smells great! All those citrus in bloom at same time!? WOW, Where do you keep them all? (you say your yard is so small).
Leapfrog, yours looks just like meyers that I have! Small & bushy with fruits & lots of blooms. It was taken from a cutting --it's not grafted. Am having better luck w/ it than grafted ones. Here's mine

Oooh, it's sooo nice when they are blooming & set fruit!

Thanks Patty!

Sometimes, if your shoulder just brush off gently some of the young growth flushes, it smells like perfume, different than from the flowers. Indeed, it keeps getting better when you see fruits forming.

I have about 85 or more citrus cultivars but only 10 planting holes, so obviously they are multi-grafted. I have the effective equivalent of 10 medium sized trees when it comes to total harvest size, not 85 trees.
