Description

Fancy a glass of lemonade made from own fresh home-grown lemons? Growing citrus plants takes a little effort, but the results are well worth it! Citrus Meyer Lemon Shrubs are a cross between a regular lemon and a mandarin orange. The fruit is about the size of a lemon, sometimes slightly smaller, with a smooth, deep yellow peel. The flesh and juice are sweeter than a regular lemon. Meyer Lemons taste similar to regular lemons but with a sweeter, more floral taste. The flavor can taste a little like a sour lemon mixed with a juicy orange. When ripe, they have a citrusy, spiced aroma!

HOW TO GROW Citrus plants need a very bright space in order to thrive indoors, ideally a bright, south facing room with large windows. They usually flower in late winter, and fruits take a year to develop, so you’ll often see fruit and flowers on the plant at the same time. The creamy white flowers are beautiful and very fragrant.

Citrus are hungry plants that require a lot of nutrients in order to produce flowers which turn into fruit, so feed them regularly during the growing season (Easter through Thanksgiving) with a fertilizer that is specific to citrus plants. Citrus trees don’t need regular pruning but, if necessary, thin out crowded branches in the winter and cut back the top shoot to promote bushy growth. In summer, pinch out the most vigorous growing tips. Rotate the plant often so that it achieves an attractive, even growth rate.
