Valley Lemon surprise.

After Christmas shopping last night, I get home and my husband shows me this! I got so excited. You see, this is a Valley lemon ~ not just any lemon, it's a "Valley lemon" they are so good! They are a cross between a lemon and an orange perfect for tea! They are my favorite!! I remember peeling, eating, and saving the seeds as I was coming in, I stuck the seeds in this pot. Now look! I can't wait for it to become a tree! I will definitely do a follow up post!

  1. I've never heard of a valley lemon. Our daughter sent us a box of Meyer lemons from FL this week. We love them and when we find them in the stores they are so expensive. Do they sell valley lemons in the store in south Texas?

  8. Hi, I've never heard of this either; I love Meyers lemons but it is too cold for lemons here(unless you put them in the basement). Enjoy!

  9. Well that is so neat! I've never heard of those before. Are they native to your area? I buy lemons for my ice water at home. I love all forms of citrus, so I bet I would like those too. That's nice that you'll be able to grow your own to enjoy. You'll have to show it again once it starts producing fruit!

  13. I looked up Valley Lemon, which I had not heard of before, and found that it's what's called a Meyer lemon elsewhere. These do not seem to grow true when raised from seed, because of being hybrids, but it would be fun to see what fruit they do produce, maybe better than a Meyer lemon.
