Lemon Blossom

We've had a lemon tree for several years now and it continues to 'do the business'.   How strange that a plant can carry fruit at the same time as setting flowers for the next crop!   It is a very 'messy' plant so it's difficult to get attractive photographs.   Shame the scent can't be detected from photographs.   The first image shows the profusion of flowers with a lemon yet to reach maturity.   The second one features part of a lemon (green still) above a flower and buds.   During summer months the tree is out in the garden.

I also found there were two other plants in the house bearing white flowers - and I'm never averse to trying to photograph 'white'.   The white Orchid flower is followed by white Alstroemeria (cut flowers).
