We have a lemon tree in our backyard – if you’ve never seen immature ones – here they are! They take almost a year to mature – the blossoms grew in the winter (Jan/Feb) and the fruit won’t be ready until November!  Looking forward to lots of lemonade :)

  17. Wow, my mother in law has lemon trees but I’ve never paid that much attention. Which is sad if you think about it, we never slow down for even the most simple of pleasures.
