Description
The Eureka lemon was developed in Los Angeles, California in 1858 and commercialized in 1877. It has somehow found it way to Hawaii, probably because it is used as the standard commercial lemon variety because of its consistent flavor, firm texture, high oil content and nearly year-round growing season. Originally named "Garney's Eureka" after Thomas Garney, who propagated the Eureka lemon tree. The Eureka lemon is one of only two lemons classified as "true lemons". I grew these beauties in my yard here on the Hawaiian island of Molokai.

Wow, growing your own fruit in your yard is something that I'm so envious about... I've just come in from shoveling tons of snow... so not something that happens too often here. Now for the photo.. beautiful. I love the composition - it's so well balanced and the photo is wonderful too! :-) Maggie

Aloha Maggie, thanks for the comment. I used to live in Chicago and have had my fill of snow. Hawaii more beta.
