When we bought our house in 2011, we inherited a beautiful Meyer lemon tree - one of the benefits of living in Southern California. Meyer lemons are likely a cross between a lemon and a mandarin orange. They are reputed for their sweetness. But sweetness is a relative term. Meyer lemons are more less less tart than regular lemons - but they are no less satisfying. Meyer lemon trees are ever bearing but usually produces two big harvests per year - and its time for one of them.
