You may want to give Meyer lemon a try. I am in a very cloudy zone 7 but
they never fail to produce a fair number of fruit year round. They are
fairly cold hardy and I only bring them in just before freezing in order to
minimize mites. If you have ever smelled a truly tree ripened lemon or tried a
wedge in a gin and tonic then you will know what citrus is supposed to be. Meyer
has an additional advantage of being almost as easy as fuschia to
propagate and has a tendency to be naturally dwarfing with no understock (i.e.
the plants are cheap to reproduce and you'll make a lot of friends by
passing them on ). I got my original plant from Monrovia Nursery.
Just a thought.
