Here, ladies and gentlemen, is our newest addition to the yard garden. It is a fairly mature key lime tree which, after careful planning (digging another hole that hit our main water line), we chose this beautiful spot on the east side of our house. We justified the location saying that the nasty thorns will help keep out intruders. I wouldn't have minded if we put it up a little further in the lawn to block our neighbors "Change" Obama sign. If I was more self conscious, I would have thought that she was trying to tell us something by how close she put the sign to our house. Photos coming soon. Back to our key lime tree....if we are lucky, and maybe with a good whack, it will deliver us with some Corona or pie bound fruit next season. Don't really know what else to do with them. So far our Florida edible yard garden consists of a large, but unhealthy, grapefruit tree, three
very healthy bananna trees, a dead avacado tree, our neighbors clementine tree which hangs over our yard, and now our new key lime tree. Sounds like the family will be getting citrus for future holiday gifts.
