The Lemon Tree

We planted this lemon tree about 4-5 years ago. It's a variegated lemon tree. the lemons are green & yellow, and the lemon pulp is red. It's like a ruby red grapefruit only it's a lemon. As I understand, these are not sold anymore. We got one of the few that were sold. The lemons are so good!! I have eaten them straight from the tree!
