Storage

Given in thirds of a month (early / mid / late) for the northern hemisphere in a temperate climate; altitude and season shift them.

Small to medium, rounded-oval fruit with thin smooth rind, very juicy, very acidic flesh and some seeds.

Vigorous, thorny, densely foliaged tree with high productivity.

Very productive with main ripening in early winter (Primofiore); the season's first commercial lemon.

Spain's most important early commercial cultivar; complements the late 'Verna' seasonally.
