I went to Disney this afternoon and took the Land back stage tour. Was really interesting and entertaining when the guide kept asking questions meant to stump us and I would answer(such as the all spice question, since I have them in my yard, their produce wasnt much a challenge to identify(yeah I am that guy)) .

Anyway they had a few trees I am looking for and maybe someone on here knows where to find one here in the states.

9 Pounder lemon tree. A could tree which supposedly has a superior fruit to normal lemons. I have done a quick search on google and didnt find it. Anyone have any ideas where to look? I can have it shipped elsewhere and pick it up in person.

Java Apple- not a citrus tree but perhaps someone has seen it around somewhere. Would love one of these too.

Wow, I really cant say enough good things about this place http://www.harriscitrus.com/store/index.php?cPath=6&osCsid=aa8396fdd6b1fb7310dffa60aecc0491. It was a pleasant drive to get to out in the middle of orange country, people were incredibly nice and talkative, prices were very low(lower than website), they gave great advice on stuff to use, and had stuff brand new to FL that wasnt on the website. I also found out they supply some of the exotic trees to Disney and other exotic gardens in the Central FL area. If you find yourself passing through the area around Tampa or are from that area, go have a look. Amazing selection on oddball citrus.

I'm wondering if the Panzarella lemon might be the big one.

The 9 pound lemon can apparently get pretty big under ideal conditions...
Shocked
