Title: Lemon tree to swap
Post by: donlottie on October 16, 2007, 16:49:32
I have a lemon tree which fruited last year when given to me by my mother. Unfortunately I do not have a greenhouse so this year it have not done anything. Rather than keep it suffering I would prefer to swap it for some other fruit bearing tree/bushes etc that do not require overwintering in warm conditions. Blueberry would be ideal.

This plant is about 12" high and in a large pot I think 2ltr.

Jostaberries are brilliant - like huge blackcurrants but sweet enough to eat raw! :)
