LEMON GROWING
Lemon-growing is increasing in popularity with Hawke’s Bay orchardists, although tlie amount of sun which this crop requires is necessarily a limiting factor (says a writer in the Daily Telegraph). One Havelock North orchardist has three wonderfully health-looking heavy-bearing lemon trees from which he estimates his output at 100 cases yearly. The prevalence of frosts on the flats, however, exercises a deterring factor upon the growth of lemon-growing in Hawke’s Bay as it is in the Tauranga district. Another orchardist is experimenting with grapefruit and has planted out a number of young trees which appear to be doing very 7 well.
