I had a relative who lived in California during the middle part of the last century. He owned an orchard where among his crops were lemons. Near to 1970 he and his family made a holiday visit to our much more northern home and when he came he brought along a 50-pound burlap bag full of lemons from his trees. They were not like lemons from the store--they were almost as sweet as oranges and that whole bag disappeared in fairly short order.

No they are Persian Sweet Lemons they are native to the southern parts of my home country of Iran. We call them "Limo Shirin" in Farsi, which means "Sweet Lemon". They are just that, sweet lemons, deep lemon flavor, a lot less acidic than lemons. You have to eat them quickly after you slice them open as they turn bitter in about 1 minute when it reacts to air. If you are in Los Angeles you can find them at any Persian (Iranian) Grocery store.

On the Texas gulf coast lemons grow everywhere. We grow a number of varieties in our yard (2 varieties of Meyer Lemons and Ujukitsu that are so sweet, you don’t have to add water and sugar to make lemonade), as well as Golden Grapefruits that look like sour yellow grapefruit but tastes like an orange, and Satsumas (a kind of tangerine). We have a fig tree, grapes and blackberries. Hilariously, because everyone thinks Texas is hot, it’s too cold to grow limes. They are grown further south in the Rio Grande Valley.

I’m lucky that I pick my lemons from a tree in my garden. I’m Spanish and live in Northern Spain.
