I first mentioned my surprise at finding a lemon tree bursting with fruit during ice cold weather back in February of this year (Dispatch from Thezan).

As I have mentioned already this week, it is damned cold here again, this time as early as November / December.

But on this vsit I find that Martin and Sile have their own little lemon tree in the garden.............

...............which, on account of the weather conditions, they decided should be wrapped-up.

And next door the one I first saw is once again laden with fruit and looks strong and healthy despite the prevailing conditions.
