Meyer Lemon Tree Starter Plant. Citrus x meyeri. 3" - 5"

Description

Citrus × meyeri, known as ???, or the Meyer lemon, is a hybrid citrus fruit native to China. It is a cross between a citron and a mandarin/pomelo hybrid. Mature trees are around 6 to 10 ft tall with dark green shiny leaves. Flowers are white with a purple base and fragrant. These starter plants will produce fruit in about 5 years. As the tree is a heavy fruit-bearing variety, it will provide a large number of lemons each year. The Meyer lemon tree is self-pollinating and produces fruit in the winter months, so it can grow indoors or outdoors all year round. Well suited to an indoor patio, or outdoors , this lovely fruit is sweeter than store-bought lemons, and will make the perfect cup of lemonade, or add a sweet twist to your bakery or culinary delights. Each plant is wrapped in thermal bubble wrap to protect against cold weather.
