What an enormous amount of thought, care & work you've put into just planting lemons, never mind everything else. The pics of the flowers, each one, are perfection. I feel like I'm there.
Simply beautiful gardens you have and those lemon trees!!! Primavera is one of my favorite seasons in Italy. We are currently here in Tuscany and our drive through the Val d’Orcia this morning with its incredible rolling green hills dotted with touches of golden yellow, red poppies and waves of crimson Sulla.Today was a splendid day just driving on the strada bianca and “getting lost” along the way. Enjoy this magnificent season in your forever home!
Lemon butterfly cakes always made from our lemon tree in Andalucia although ants got in the tin in the last batch. My mother made them for me, I made them for my children & I now make them for my grandchildren …….
My favorite recipe is also my sister’s lemon pound cake. Now that she can no longer cook, it’s especially precious. Thanks for sharing your lively garden. 🍋
Wow, lovely joking supply of lemons, must be cool to just pick what you need. Do you store then in a cool place or in sunny place once picked. I enjoy lemons in my water, over salads, stuffed in bake chicken and squeezed over roasted potatoes, plus over ways. Hope the kitties are settling in well❤️🐾
Wonderful ideas , 💡 thank you for sharing it made my morning. I’ve made a limoncello tiramisu, 😋. Your garden is beautiful I’ve been to Cortona a couple of times and opening the window from villa Baldelli, to the sound of the birds in the am is one of my fondest memories. I heard them in the background of your video as well, lovely. Love the photos and video.☀️
Those lemon pots are sublime. You are inspiring me to add to my lemon repertoire, and thank you for that. To date...I do love the combination of tahini and lemon (and garlic) in hummus. Lemon with roast chicken. Lemon peel, cumin seeds, chilli flakes and thyme with roasted cherry tomatoes over Greek yogurt. A tart lemon tart...

I've loved visiting the limonaia in the Boboli Gardens, winter and spring. Yours is a jewel-box version!

It is just an astonishing season and the Val d"orchia is pure magic.

In baskets for the beauty, but then in the fridge!

How lovely looking spring (minus the horrible pollen)
Yes, lemon meringue pie! How beautiful your terraced garden. Thank you for sharing.
I love untreated lemons to grate the rind over my first pestos (Ligurian or Sicilian) of spring.
Very beautiful!
I made lemon posset all winter eith Meyer lemons from our tree at our farm in north Florida. Heavenly! They are worth all the care we give them!
I love to make lemon marmalade with our lemons...using the whole fruit! Divine Springtime! 😊🍋💛

I have one very prolific Meyer lemon tree and I love to make curd for hostesses gifts (and for me of course!). Your garden looks lovely.
I need to find a Meyer lemon here!
