Very nice. I am jealous.
I love lemons and use them in my cooking extensively.
I had a hard time finding a decent size lemon tree in my neck of the woods (Khon Kaen) and I really looked, all I could find were some small seedlings about 24" tall that i would be dead before I get any lemons.
I finally found one that's big enough just a couple of weeks ago, so I am waiting to see how it does.
I have a big Lime tree, and i was thinking of grafting lemon to it , not sure if I should do it now or wait after the rains.
Below is a picture of the lemon tree I just got. it needs a bit pruning but I wanted to wait until it got settled to being planted.
