Planted Ponderosa Lemon trees in our little patch of paradise. We lived among the citrus, mango, avocado groves planted in Merritt Island by Italians around 1900.
Only one of those groves remains in production today...
Wow, great to hear about your lemon trees, and about the Crisafulli family. Looks like a great place to order fruit. One of my neighbors in Sou’ Fooey used to winter in Florida, and several times sent us a box of citrus fruits for taking care of their house. So delicious!
The website indicates that the family had leased it out and now are taking it back over, so maybe they will restore the lost groves. Buona fortuna a tutti quanti!
