This lemon variety is exceptional, one established will produce large, thick-skinned lemons of supermarket quality—an excellent choice for enhancing your gin and tonic. Adorned with glossy, dark foliage, it boasts delicate clusters of small white flowers that emit a delightful fragrance from April to June. While the fruits can take up to a year to ripen, the wait is truly rewarding, and harvested lemons can be stored for up to two weeks.
Lemon trees can tolerate brief periods below freezing, but they thrive best when grown in sizeable containers and brought indoors to a well-lit, frost-free location during autumn to spring. Notably, this tree is self-fertile and doesn't require a pollination partner. Supplied as pot grown plants in 9cm nursery pots (decorative pots are no included)
