Fruit
Verna
A tier
Verna is a Spanish late-season lemon—thickish peel, moderate seeds, good summer availability when other lemons wane. Flavour is standard culinary lemon with solid juice. Important in Spanish citrus calendars and export. Juice and slice for summer drinks and cooking when winter lemons fade. Peel suits confit with its thickness. A seasonal supply cultivar rather than a dessert brand.
