The garden that I'm working on these days is new to me, so I'm still
trying to figure out all of the various plants that I've 'inherited'.

This afternoon, I was poking about, trying to figure out what this
shrubby tree could be. Leaves light green (or yellow, not good) and
shiny, reminds me a bit of the shape of gardenias... light grey bark,
interesting red leaf buds...

....muttering away, until I took a step back, and realized that there
were three lemons hanging cheerfully off of on branch, just above
eye level.

Now to find the right food for said lemon, prop it up a bit, and get
it back into health ;

I found a tree like that in the woods, with some round yellow fruits on
it. I took some to a family get-together to see if anybody could ID them,
and they turned out to be lemons. This was surprising, considering this
was in the Smoky mountains, hundreds of miles farther north than any
lemon should be able to grow. I've got my fingers crossed trying to
sprout some seeds now.
