Availability: In Stock

This small, evergreen tree is thought to have originated in East Asia and been introduced to the Mediterranean towards the end of the first century. It has long been grown for its juicy, yellow skinned fruit, with the Arabs credited with spreading lemon cultivation through the Mediterranean region. Throughout the Middle Ages lemon was an exotic and expensive novelty in Europe, but over the centuries they become more widely used. The Spanish introduced them to the New World in the fifteenth century and today is a leading producer of Lemons. High in Vitamin C, the Lemon adds its distinctive sourness to beverages (such as lemonade) and dishes of all kinds.

Repotting: In general it is best to repot just before or during the growing months, rather than in the Autumn or Winter.
Problems: There are very few lemon tree problems that are life-threatening--and the home gardener cannot do anything about those anyway. Many of the rest of the insects and diseases that afflict lemon trees can generally be ignored in the home garden, as blemishes to the peel affect only the appearance, and, in some cases, size of the fruit.
