But.....it is also loaded with ripe lemons. I don't know if this is normal or if it has something to do with the weather. So I'm making this notation on the blog so that I can check the trees next winter to see if this is what normally happens.
The flowers are on last year's growth, that means, on the ends of the branches. The lemons are closer to the truck on the two year old growth. So fruits and flowers don't grow side by side.
By the way, most of my citrus is in semi shade areas, but these particular lemon trees are in full shade and still producing in spite of that. Perhaps not producing nearly as much as a tree getting lots of sun, but producing lemons none the less. So it's a food crop that I can use to utilizing my shade areas.
