After wanting a lemon tree ever since we moved in here (not to mention also when we were renting but it was a bit impractical then), we finally have one. Bought it at the annual 'Waikato Tree Crop association' plant sale for the bargain price of $15. I made sure I arrived before the sale started this year as I knew all the citrus trees were sold out in the first half hour last year.
It is a Meyer lemon which was bred specifically for cooler climates so can withstand some frost. It is also a heavy year round cropping tree. I'm looking forward to our first homegrown lemon.
