When the Mama bought her lemon tree, she lucked out big time. Not only does it bear Meyer lemons, but it also gives forth citrons. Someone had grafted a couple of citron branches to the lemon tree, unbeknownst to her and possibly the nursery from which she bought the tree.
Some of the citron are Buddah's hands. They're the ones that are oddly shaped, generally looking like fingers. Buddah's hands can get truly creepy looking.

Cool! Mutant lemons!
ReplyDeleteThey taste delightful, too.
DeleteUnusual and cool lemons!
ReplyDeleteSomeone told me that citrons are good for making candied lemon peels. One of these days I'll try making them.
DeleteGreat fun, these lemons are true works of art! Beautiful photo! I like !!
ReplyDeleteIndeed! Nature has a wonderful sense of humor.
DeleteYour mom hit the jackpot with that tree!
ReplyDeleteIn so many ways. Lemons cost a mint in the supermarket now.
DeleteThat's a twofer..... like at my dry cleaners.... "two for the price of one." I always save up my sweaters and go for the twofer's.
ReplyDeleteThese lemons are so different looking-quite wild
ReplyDeleteThey even get more wilder. I like ones that truly look like long slender fingers with wicked fingernails.
