When life gives you lemons …… these little beauties are only babies yet, but it´s wonderful to be able to go into the garden to pluck them from the tree to squeeze over freshly-barbecued fish!
This post is my response to this week´s Travel Theme: Foliage

What a fresh and green pic 🙂
Thanks Paula! It´s VERY green, isn´t it? 🙂
Pucker up ()

My lemons are just flowers right now. Your photo brought back the frangrance
of mine when I last picked them. So fresh … mmmmm.
Great photo ….!!!!
Thanks Isadora 🙂
That image is so crisp and clear I can almost smell that beautiful fresh citrus scent
Ah yes, I know what you mean 🙂
The smell of freshly-picked citrus fruit, fresh from the tree is wonderful, isn´t it?
Sure is…
Oh yum! I’ve got a lemon and a lime tree and have fresh juice every morning. These are juicy little darlings! 😀
They surely are, Dianne – and all the sweeter because the juice is from our own trees 🙂
Beautiful! Makes me want a lemon tree! 😉
Wouldn´t it be possible where you live, M?
Thoughtful question – I’d have to keep it inside, but yes, I’ve had friends who did it successfully! 😉
Excellent! 🙂

I’d love to pick one of those for my ice tea this very moment!
You would probably be better with one of the ripe ones 🙂
In autumn and winter, I love to sip the juice of whole lemon squeezed into a glass of hot water – first thing in a morning! Delicious 🙂
That is one beautiful photo and a great response to the challenge. 🙂
Thanks John – I always appreciate your comments 🙂
Awesome shot!
Thanks Jennifer!
Oh, to live in a place where lemons grow in your garden! Lucky, lucky you!
I know how lucky I am, Sally. I never lose sight of that 🙂

Oh wow, they look lovely! When they are ripe and ready to be eaten, add some plain salt and it’s a feast!
Add salt to the lemons?
Oh yes but not too much, it’s really very good.
How lovely to have your own lemon tree.:)
We have lots of trees including forty almond trees, lemon, fig, lime, apricot, mango, avocado, nectarine and apple trees – quite apart from all the vines and “ordinary” non-fruit trees! Keeps us more than busy 🙂
I’m impressed. You must have lots of foliage to photograph. 🙂
Hmmmm … too much sometimes! 😉
I can almost taste it!
I like this photo because it looks as though you can just reach into the screen and pick one!
Mmmmmm I like it very much Marianne!!!
Thank you so much 🙂
There’s something about citrus leave//// foliage, I should say, that’s so clean, and crisp and scrunchable – beautiful shot Marianne, with the raindrops still clinging to the leaves and immature fruit 🙂
Lovely, aren´t they? Thanks 🙂
🙂
Lovely! And as soon as it stops raining for a while we need to get out in our garden and cut back our lemon tree – it´s gone mad in our absence!
Hmmm they tend to do that! 🙂
