Yeah I'm confused as well. I saw a Lemon Drop on Ebay but it didn't say anything about ET so I didn't bid. I think the Lemon Drop has smaller flowers and the ET Lemon Drops are bigger? I am looking for the ET Lemon Drop. How about you?

Yes, I am looking for ET Lemon Drop. Didn't someone email you a source?

Moonie, I'll send you the same info.

FC has what they call Thornton Lemon and they confirmed by email that it is Thornton Lemon Drop and they do have them available. I just didn't want grafted as I think LD is pretty easy to root and vigorous.

Thanks, Jen, for the contact info. Next week, (when i have more spending money and stay away from ebay) I'll make some calls!

I think I -do- want to try a grafted tree. Just once... maybe more.
