	The '''Imperial Lemon Grove''' was a large grove of lemon trees located within the [[Palace of Columns]] near the summer imperial capital of [[Daguo]], [[Daxia]]. The first trees were uprooted from [[Rusana]] and planted in the grove by Emperor Chengzi in the year 1256 to provide lemons for his predilection for drinking a glass of lemonade every day. The incorporation of parts of [[Rusana]] later in history and the expansion of trade meant the grove was more decorative and recreational in nature later on. During Chengzi's reign the grove grew to cover an area of sixty hectares and included walkways, artificial ponds housing exotic fish such as giant carp, bridges, a pagoda and several carved gazebos where palace visitors and officials could meet for lunch.
