Lemon Meyer

This lemon tree is grown for its tasty fruit, but the white fragrant flowers are also scented, and the foliage is neat and evergreen. The lemon fruits are slightly sweeter than commercially grown lemons and are great in cold drinks.

This lemon tree is grown for its tasty fruit, but the white fragrant flowers are also scented, and the foliage is neat and evergreen. The lemon fruits are slightly sweeter than commercially grown lemons and are great in cold drinks.
This hardy variety of lemon has been known to withstand temperatures right down to freezing and will do well outside in all but the very coldest spells. This variety is slightly less ornamental and trickier to look after than the lemon four seasons but it is popular for it's slightly sweeter fruit. We have now sold out of these larger lemon meyers but we do have some very nice younger plants available from the lemon trees selection on the left hand menu.

Additional Information about this plant...
Lemon 'Meyer'
Citrus limon x sinensis
Meyer lemons are named after the explorer Frank N Meyer who introduced them to the USA in 1908
Fragrant whitish flowers
Juicy, mild tasting fruit is smaller than that of the lemon and has a thin peel with a golden colour
More robust than the lemon, the lemon 'meyer' will cope well with cool conditions but will react quite quickly to a lack of light. It will often flower and fruit more than once a year producing ripe fruit in a variety of conditions not just a greenhouse!
Season: Oct to Dec
Lemon Meyer is the chefs choice, sweeter than commercial lemon varieties, this juicy fruit can be used in cooking, drinks, marmalade or even for traditional lemonade.

How to Look After our Plants
Looking after your Lemon Tree
These instructions are sent with the plant gift
This plant has both decorative fruit and fragrant flowers – sometimes both at once. It can bring pleasure for months, or even years, with the right care.
Citrus trees need light. A conservatory is ideal but they will also be happy near a window in a cool, bright room. In the summer, your lemon plant will enjoy a patio in partial shade. However young trees are not hardy and will need to come inside as soon as there is a nip in the evening air. Try to keep your plant away from cold draughts, direct sunlight and radiators.
Lemons tend to grow slowly; if you need to, repot in the spring in citrus compost.
Citrus trees are not the easiest of plants but they are very rewarding. Look out for signs of trouble and try to treat problems early. The most common problem is leaves dropping due to over watering - cut back any dead wood and be patient while it recovers. This time keep it thirsty.
