[Bordermarch] Superfluous Rhetoric

[Lathrop, Dave]

Maria,

It is indeed a small tree, I thought it was a lemon tree when I bought it a few years ago, but nothing turned yellow. Since the limes are still very hard, I shall wait with patience, and guard my four pieces of fruit from HE Elisabeth's.
Thanks for the info.

Santiago

Santiago,
Is it one of those small lime trees?  If so, it could be a lemon.  I have a lime and a lemon and neither ever turn a real yellow that you see with regular lemons.  
As far as whether they are ripe ... feel them.  If they are hard they aren't ready.  If they are slightly givey, they are ready.  
Don't know anything about grapes except they make good wine but you can't drink it for a while.
