You are SO RIGHT about the avocado and Kit mango trees! We practically fast on them and add the avocado pits to smoothies. But about the Meyer lemons, the key limes from our tree beat them out, esp. if left on the tree to ripen so much that they fall off. They have a complex taste, about 5 tastes in one. We tried a Sweet Lemon tree (a Middle Eastern fruit apparently) and they really did taste like lemonade! Unfortunately they never developed any juiciness no matter what we did. It might be because we're in FL not Cal.; we couldn't get juicy blood oranges and pomegranates either. We also have a kaffir lime tree which we use for the leaves. It has never fruited so I don't know what they're like. To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!
