Fruit, millions in Spanish city (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lemon

'fruit' is the definition.
(I know that lemon is a type of citrus fruit)

'millions in spanish city' is the wordplay.
'millions' becomes 'm' (abbreviation for millions).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'spanish city' becomes 'leon' (Leon is a city in Spain).
'm' inserted into 'leon' is 'LEMON'.

(Other definitions for lemon that I've seen before include "something unattractive" , "Citrus fruit (is it the answer?)" , "Fruit - 11 (anag)" , "Defective object" , "leaving bitter taste?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
