I chopped my mature tree down to sell the house but a friend has one. This will make around 12 pints of marmalade. Made 12 pints last night. He gave me some meyer lemons to throw in the marmalade. Oh and I'll make some moroccan preserved lemons as well. Last year I got about 20 gallons of lemons, this year maybe a few dozen. Same guy I topworked a tree to xie shan satsuma and another to 3 mandarins.

Nice! My little Changshou is loaded. Im the only one who likes to eat them fresh though. Is making marmalade easy?

Very nice! I wish my small changshou would flower every month. It flowered in June, dropped all the fruitlets in August, and has been dormant since.

Marmalade is easy. Changshou is my favorite except when I can get true seville oranges(I'm growing some out from seed tho)
