Lemon Trees in my Lemon- 07.14.09
As promised in the last post about the Arta Barware goodies ~ while making lemonade we cut open one of the largest (nearly softball sized?) lemons from the top of my tree ~ and we were surprised to find that the seeds had started sprouting! Not knowing this was possible, i immediately started rethinking those old wives’ tales about how swallowing a seed would make a tree grow out of your head…. and while talking to someone else, i started thinking of the plant based villains from Darkwing Duck too (embedded videos on the next page if you need to catch up on Dr. Bushroot and Spike)… Anyhow, the seeds have now been planted, will see what happens to them, but not before taking some pics to share with you!
p.s.
I’m no botanist. Is this normal?

It is because it got hot, if it was at the top of your tree, it would have had little shade to cool it down. The hot and wet of the lemon were perfect conditions for the seeds to sprout….
