Here are some shots of the sweet meyer lemon hybrid fruit a Houston citrus nut gave me today. A 2nd friend grew out a bunch of meyer lemon seeds and this is the best of them. Tastes and looks a lot like the bloomsweet fruit I have been eating lately, kind of sweet-tart:

My friend James also notes that another of the seedlings has similar tasting fruit that is meyer lemon shaped.
