Sour Flower

We have two beds at work that are full of lemon and lime trees. It is very hard to tell the difference between the two. Im fairly certain this is a lemon flower as the leaves are slightly serrated and I remember taking the picture of a larger tree, and in those beds the limes are smaller then the lemon trees. These trees have a bad habit of turning yellow before flowering so make sure you fertilize as soon as the yellowing starts. If you are having trouble getting your lemon or lime to hold fruit, add sulphate of potoash to your fertilizing schedule. Its really useful in plant reproduction and should help things along. The fruit at work however never manages to make it to maturity. The problem with being in a public place, its always picked when it is nowhere near ripe and thrown about the parks. Sill, the flowers are quite pretty and smell delightful.
