is just a profiteer. He earns his money not as farmer but with the fee he charges from people visiting his garden.

So why people visit the garden ?

Maybe for some documentations made by the ORF and other TV stations .. ?

At 14:48 it does sure look like a lemon. Sanguinello, what do YOU think the citrus at 14:42 is?

It very well could be a Ichang papeda hybrid, but definitely not any true lemon.

Also the fruit has a flat end...

My knowledge is far too vast and too special to find some info about it in internet always for you.

I am fed up and just will not share my knowledge any more with you.

Laaz, the first fruits ( at 14:42 ) have flat ends, but the second fruit ( at 14:48 ) has no flat, but rather is shaped just like a lemon to my eye. I've read that there are hardier lemons in Italy, but I really don't know anything about them or if this looks at all like one???

Yes, maybe, it may well be a seedling of this fruit. But the rind looks much smoother than those of the papeda group.

Laaz, ignoring the climate (I know we shouldn't and that the papedas much more likely), doesn't it look a lot like a Eureka to you?

Greg there are so many hybrids it difficult to pin it down, but it is not a true lemon.
