soidog2 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 On the tree you would not guess it, this one lemon tree produces seedless lemons all year long. Nice for juice & lemonades, 100 % organic. Endless uses. Wife makes shampoo & dish washing detergent from the skins. Leftovers get buried in the garden, nothing is wasted. Enjoy the pictures.

Dag Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 lemons or limes ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afarang Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 lemons or limes ? To me they look like lemons. They have their little nipples on the ends ,which limes don't have, But they are too green, not yellow enough to be proper lemons. Are they a hybrid, or should I ask what variety are they?. They are much smaller ,also ,than the lemons we grow in Oz.. Very interesting. Would like to know more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doggie888888 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Soidog...where are you planting this? Chiangmai? I am in Pattaya and have been on the lookout for lemon (not lime) trees that will grow in humid weather. Thanks for the pics...I am salivating!

Would like to know more We have the same....only 2 years old though, turns yellow, some of them and have the longer nipple than the oz lemones. we also have limes and one tree that is half lime and half lemon. We bought the lemon trees as 'real lemons' but believe they are a Thai lemon.....not quite same same oz ones.....I want an Oz one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not limes, juice tastes like lemons. They do get yellow, if I leave them in the tree long enough. Now rainy season, fruit will split and rot before it has a chance to become fully yellow. I pick them when slightly soft to the touch. Regards Pnustedt; are yours seedless as well ? Edited September 1, 2011 by soidog2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnustedt Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Pnustedt; are yours seedless as well ? Yes. It is actually a hybrid - the lemon stock is grafted onto the rootstock of a tree that grows the double leaves used in tom yum goon soup. We have allowed a branch to grow directly from the rootstock which gives us these leaves, making the tree even more productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent, you mean a kaffir lime, that in itself does not mean it is a hybrid. Where did the graft come from ? Best regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnustedt Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Where did the graft come from ? A stall on the main road north of Rasi Sala (a few hundred metres out of town on the left). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
