The Smell Of Paradise

I went to Home Depot with my mother this week (where she bought the beautiful Hibiscus) and came across these fruit trees.  I was drawn by their scent.

We used to have fruit trees in our backyard - lemon, grapefruit, and pomegranate trees.  I love the way the citrus trees smell, I love their glossy, vibrant green leaves, and I love having fresh lemons or limes available for the plucking.

This has been something on my radar for a while, and when we're ready to do some landscaping (even though I suspect it's a while off), these will be at the top of my list!
