I am a relatively new gardener. I started about three months ago and am still learning tons. I have gotten the Citrus "itch", ok that didn't sound good. And I was wondering who else is growing Citrus and what kinds, and if you could share some basic info or pics of your garden.

I have:
tangerine tree (9 inches tall)
Meyer lemon tree (10 inches tall, but bush form, with buds)
Nugami Kumquat tree (24 inches tall, has four fruit on them, waiting to ripen)
Small Navel orange variety (14 inches tall, with small buds)

Please share if you can and show the rest of us your varieties and how you're growing your plants. Anyone had fruits on their citrus plants already and tried eating them? I live in Massachusetts so anything that is somewhat hardy and can be grown indoors I am willing to try.

I will share pictures when I get home.
I have some on my blog: Sunroom Gardening

Thanks!
