Thanks, Blair. Maybe we can make it a lemon-squeezing party.

Our lemon tree is burgeoning. We have lemons in all states of development from bud to flower to ripe fruit.


Htbrown, excellent photo.

Really like this. But where are the aphids? My trees are magnets for the critters.

Thanks!

We have trouble with aphids too. Aphids are farmed by ants. They can be knocked off with soap sprays, but you need to stop the ants or they'll be right back. A band of tanglefoot around the trunk works well.

Have tried the tanglefoot put on over a wrap of plastic so that it doesn't damage the trunk. It only lasts about a year unless a good wind ruins it by blowing the mulch all over it! I just need to keep on those ants better.
