Lemon Tree Very Pretty

Somehow I spent $100 at the nursery yesterday. All I intended to get was a bag of potting soil and some compost. Oops.
 















They had this Meyer's lemon tree and it was blooming. I just had to have it.
 
Bunnies eating flowers are just cute.  
Here is a picture of all of the plants back on the deck.

I also bought a banana tree for Manly Man, a flat of petunias, and a flat of marigolds. I wish y'all could smell that lemon tree. Sweeeet.

  6. That lemon tree *is* pretty darn irresistible! Based on the the bunny's fur pattern, I'll assume it's a pet bunny, in which case, yes! Bunnies are cute eating anything long. I love they way they twirl carrots, for example!

  7. We never leave a store with just what we went for! James is really wanting a lemon tree to go along with our lime tree, I'm sure we will end up with one before the end of the season! Your bunny is adorable.

  9. I wish I could smell it too! Is it similar to smelling the lemon-scented geranium? I just love that. Oh, and lemon verbena!

    Shala, I love that tree. If I ever get a lemon I will REALLY love that tree.

    flowrgirl1, Your welcome and thank you.

    Brenda, They don't smell like lemon at all. They smell sweet.
