Lemons and childhood memories

16 years ago

Growing up, we spent a fair amount of time in Greece. Most of my family still lived there so my mom went back to see them and "dragged" us along. One of my fondest memories is the look and, particularily, the smell of the Lemon Valley (lemonothasos) on one of the islands. Hundreds of lemon trees providing the sweetest smell anyone could imagine. Trying to find that beautiful sent in a house grown lemon tree. Have tried Meyer Lemon and, frankly, they have no odor. Can anyone suggest a lemon tree (as well as how I can secure one in North East Canada) that would have this wonderous odor? I remember just rubbing my fingers on the leaves and producing that lemon odor.

Any help would be appreciated.
