Shot taken 2 or 3 days ago. Christine was picking some of the many lemons in our lemon tree and she called me to see this huge lemon. It weighed almost 1kg, when we weighed it later and it was not the only one that size, I asked her to hold it for me so that I could show its size compared to her hand. Like the orange tree – we have had a wonderful crop of oranges, we have eaten at least 4 each day for months and still have more to enjoy - the lemon tree is doing very well, too. We have given to relatives bagfuls of lemons and still the tree is full of them.
This is so incredible and forgive me, but I have to relate! We had a lemon tree for nearly 25 years and, yes, the lemons were immense like this (though far more pith than juicy center!) We always joked and called them Chernobyl Lemons, because they don't appear to be quite natural! If you have FB access, I just posted photos of all our fruit trees we pick from daily! We must be in the same temperate zone! https://www.facebook.com/louise.lunenburg.9/
We are in another temperate zone and still able to grow lemons which takes months to ripen and become juicy! Glad you included the arm and the hand which shows the size of the lemon!
Amazing… could be you don’t use chemicals?
I don’t and the difference is, that the fruit is abundant with pips, large fruits, very juicy and very slightly thicker skin.
