Food

[Henry Krinkle]

I am amazed you can grow Meyers that far north! We have two bushes here - they are a favorite variety in the Bay Area. But, we rarely get hard forests. They can handle down to about -2 or -3c, for a night, but not for extended times. You must have to coddle them up there. (One of our bushes has ripe fruit hanging all year long - they are very special this way.)

Unfortunately we can't grow them here. I have to buy them in the store. We can't even grow regular lemons here, though there is a botanist at the university working on an indoor lemon that fruits every quarter.on the upside because our winters are so cold that fruit that does grow here tends to be healthy, healthful and incredibly hardy.
