Small vigorous bush that flowers during spring and summer and fruits heavily from December until the first frost. In NZ maybe but not inmy garden!! Pam in Bristol Yes but that's why I said I got it from an NZ contact!! I could imagine someone indignantly telling me theirs didn't fruit in Bristol in December. ;-) -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ (remove weeds from address) |

I bought Ray a Citrus medica "Buddha's Hand" which arrived on Friday and he had to open his birthday present early. He's delighted with it but unfortunately they had to cut the fruits off for transportation. However, they included them with the plant and Ray has tied one onto the tree to show what it should look like! The other lay on the table in the big double and all day yesterday, people were asking what it is. The lemon scent is absolutely fantastic, never known anything so strong and apparently people hang the fruits up in their houses to perfume them. I'm not a bit surprised. What with the Meyer's lemon, the Citrus medica and now Buddha's hand this is turning into a citrus farm. ;-) -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ (remove weeds from address) |
