(J. p. W. CMceHm,. PLATE XLIII 



Citrus incdica var. liinoniun. 



ROUGH-SKIN LEMON. 



This variety is very hardy, bears profusely, and requires much 

 more water than does the orange. Being a strong, vigorous 

 grower, it forms an excellent stock upon which to graft the 

 citrus varieties. The flower is white, with a reddish tint outside. 

 The fruit is generally oval, and contains many seeds. The pale 

 yellow skin is rough and warty. The pulp is coarse-grained and 

 very juicy. It comes true to seed.
