I've been gradually resurrecting the 60+ year old grove that was in my back backyard along with the trees planted by the original homeowner 40+ years ago. One stump was a bit too close to my unknown white grapefruit but I figured I would let it grow until the next tree filled in.

It is only 6' tall and consists of 3 trunks each less than 1" diameter growing out of a 8" diameter trunk from the ground but it is clearly benefitting from the soil amendments, fertilizer, water, and mulch that I am putting on the neighboring trees. Here is one branch with less than a dozen leaves and 7 big lemons growing. The last batch to mature looked and tasted exactly like a Eureka but I really don't know. Is it lemon rootstock or did somebody plant a lemon and then cut it down before I bought the house 15 years ago?

I do know it seems REALLY happy!
