![]() I love the variety - I'm originally Canadian, and the sheer novelty of picking figs in March blows me away sometimes.

![]() If your still reading this no I don't have an ice cream maker used to but it stopped working so I threw it out. Might buy one soon as it's getting hot and lemons grow fatter and juicier every day! Thats one thing I love about my tree sometimes the lemons hang on for years! Only growing bigger every day! Once I harvested a lemon bigger than a grapefruit! It was one mocho lemon!

![]() Lorax - what do you do with your granadilla (assuming we are talking about the same thing - 12 inches long with a thick rind and not much flavour in the fruit)? All that comes to mind is candying the rind - not enough fruit to juice unless you have a superior type. Do you cook the rind as a vegetable? My p. vitifolia has taken off to such an extent that I am almost afraid to plant more varieties ( 60ft before I took the machete to it!).

![]() This morning I picked almost 3 gallons of apricots. I'll probably have the same amount ripen each day for the next 2-3 days. Coming up in a few weeks: ripe Green Gage Plums.
