地植えのリスボンレモンには去年４個の実が生りました。うち１個が今朝 地面に落ちていました。もう蕾が膨らむ季節なので、全部収穫することにしました。（南向きバルコニーに置いてあるリスボンは陽当たり良し、北風は受けない、ということで既に開花していますが、この苗の蕾はまだ硬いです。）
The Lisbon Lemon growing in the ground produced 4 fruits from last year's flowering. One of them was on the ground this morning. This tree's flower buds are growing, and I decided to pick the remaining 3 fruits as well. (The other Lisbon Lemon growing in a pot and placed on the south-facing balcony benefits from full sun while being shielded from north wind. But this tree's growing environment is less fortunate, and its flower buds are still small.)
玄関前で退屈していたタイガ様にお見せします。なぜか警戒して耳が後ろ向き。
I wanted to show the result of my labour to Taiga who was getting bored. She seems to be on alert with her ears pushed back.
Her reaction was 'Put them away!'. Dogs do not like citrus fruits.
嫌がらせのつもりはありませんが、一緒に記念撮影。私にとっては有難く大切な果実です。
I did not mean to annoy her, but I took a picture of them together. For me, these fruits are precious - the tree worked hard to grow them.
