I really did plant a seed and possess a huge lemon tree that I have to use a two wheeler to move around. The leaves are so fragrant!


Poem Artwork

Planted a seed in ninety-three
Plain lemon seed for kicks
Today the tree stands four feet so
It's got thorns just for tricks

Yes just a seed and patiently
I watched each spurt of growth
The trunk grew thick the tree flourished
Ah yes the truth here knoweth

Near end of summer saw broke branch
Placed it into a vase
Today near mid-November shocked
Roots at the branches base

Forty more trees I sure could grow
Forest could well take o'er
At my life's end find me amongst
Lemon trees at the shore

So Cool, Jane!1 I, alas, am so ancient now that any seed I plant will have to do a rush job just so I can see it!
I love this, and the last verse is so cute!

Love, Connie

Took Years To Do Transplant Them- It-Took 1 Day
Cut all Trees Down!

I Transplanted Sum 40 Plum Trees From Momma
Plum Tree Which Each Spring Bloomed White Flowers
Scent People Walk By Break Of Branches Take Home
Includes Dozen Rose Bushes,Massive Olive Tree As My Crying
Christmas Tree--It Is Still There--F--king Illegals Mexicanos
Live In My House Cut Plum Trees Down Destroyed Them
Like Zionist Jew$ Still Try To Destroy Me...!

THEY REQUIRE LITTLE or NO WATER To Survive Holy Hell Heat
In Mexifornia...I'll Post Photo Again Of My Fraudulently
Foreclosed House...

Believe I Do Have Last Laugh...

Yes, you can grow a tree from a branch. It takes the kind of patience that you have.

We are fortunate to live in the tropics, thanks to global warming. My partner has, at her house, near mine, lemon, lime, and tangerine trees. They all have grown tall and are producing hundreds of fruit. There is nothing better than lemonade, limeade, or sweet tangerines from a tree in your yard.

Still, I miss the colorful fall leaves you have up in God's country beside the lake.

Did I tell you that I planted a leaf I found growing in monkey grass 30 years ago and now it is a sweet gum tree 80 feet tall weighing at least 10 ton. I marvel at how such a massive plant can grow in my small yard with so much drought and such bad soil.
