You know, I have always wondered why no lemons (yellow real ones) are grown here. They have a stange one that is called a "sweet lemon", but try as I might, I can't figure out what to do with them.
Anyway, what's with limes and no lemons? Like the op said, there must be others. There are several vegetables that I would like get started, but alas, I do not have the space. Danny's got bananas and peppers planted in every square inch! Got four stalks that will be ready in another few weeks. Pretty bad when even the neighbors get tired of them.
Anybody got room for some good old yellow summer squash, field peas and real yams! I'll get 'em in if someone around Santiago would plant them and share. What about Silver Queen sweet corn? Someone (can't remember who) said that honest to goodness sweet corn wouldn't grow here, but for some reason, that just doesn't track. The soil here is so rich here that I've seen rocks with roots! Any thoughts?
