Product Description
Origin and Historical Background: Believed to have originated in the foothills of the Himalayas in Northeast India, the lemon has been a cherished fruit for millennia. It traveled along ancient trade routes through Persia and the Arab world to the Mediterranean, where it became a symbol of sunshine, cleanliness, and health. Prized by mariners for preventing scurvy and by nobility for its exotic flavor, the lemon tree has a rich history as a plant of both wellness and wealth.
Health and Environmental Benefits: The primary benefit of this tree is the harvest of fresh, homegrown, organic lemons, packed with Vitamin C and antioxidants, right at your fingertips. Beyond the fruit, the intensely fragrant blossoms have aromatherapeutic qualities, with a scent that is known to be uplifting, purifying, and stress-reducing. The tree also supports vital pollinators like bees, contributing to a healthier local ecosystem.
Simple Care Guide: Our lemon trees are established and ready to thrive with proper care.
-
Light: Absolutely requires Full Sun. For the best health and abundant fruit production, it needs a minimum of 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day.
-
Watering: Requires consistent moisture, especially when flowering and fruiting. Water deeply and thoroughly, approximately once a Weekly or more often in very hot weather, allowing the top few inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Excellent drainage is essential.
-
Soil: Must be planted in a well-draining potting mix. A soil blend specifically formulated for citrus is highly recommended.

Feeding: Lemon trees are heavy feeders. To support vigorous growth and fruit production, feed regularly with a specialized citrus fertilizer throughout the spring and summer growing season.
