This NY Times article has a great picture of them ... but mine were even prettier because they had pink stripes outside in addition to yellow and green. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/02/02/dining/02lemo.html?ex=1152244800&en=280fac89dc5a7732&ei=5070 Like the above article says, they pretty much taste like any other lemon. However they are attractive in a bowl and I'll bet sliced they would look lovely in a pitcher of real pink lemonade.

I'm bored with root veggies and even the radishes were in short supply. Hope to see some of those other many varieties mentioned in that 2005 article ... like the orange-colored lemon ... or the lemonade lemon. Interesting bit at the end about curing winter lemons " stacked in underground storage vaults maintained at 54 degrees, as for wine." Seems like De Santis at Alemany is selling the varigated pink lemons also. http://delightsandprejudices.blogspot.com/ Sun Dec 16 18:27:19 -0800 2007 3213732 10264 rworange 1 3238543 rw: if you like citrus, here's a producer in your neighborhood.
