Lemon - Eureka Firefly1's Edible FruitsUpdate: 2639 days 16hrs Comments: - Flowered shortly after planting, removed the flowers to let it grow - since then haven't had any more flowers, but a constant battle with leaf curl - obviously all the removal of the new growth is affecting flowering.

Peach - Tropic Beauty Firefly1's Edible FruitsUpdate: 2639 days 17hrs Comments: - The tree is producing a massive amount of fruit. We tasted our first fruit in the first season. I left 6 on and 1 came to maturity. I have had to strip the tree of the fruit because the production is far out weighing the age and capibility of the tree. This year which is its second season, I will leave 6 fruit on each main branch. June - currently in flower with fruit.
