If you find yourself frequently buying lemons at the grocery store, consider adding an indoor lemon tree to your home. These easy care, fragrant trees are small enough to fit into just about any living space and will surprise you with how much fruit they produce.
While Meyer lemon trees are the most commonly available indoor lemon tree, there are several other varieties of indoor lemon trees. We're fans of the Meyer lemon tree because it's very easy care and produces several pounds of fruit per year.
One sub category of Meyer lemon tree is the dwarf Meyer lemon tree. It is compact enough to be shipped in a one gallon container, yet produces fruit that is actually larger than most indoor lemon trees, or outdoor lemon trees for that matter. Their fruit is shaped more like an orange than a lemon, with a sweeter juice than almost any other lemon.
The dwarf Ponderosa lemon tree is another favorite. The most interesting aspect of this indoor lemon tree is the size of its fruit - usually 1 1/2 to 2 pounds. Another benefit of the dwarf Ponderosa lemon tree is the fragrance of its blooms. They almost serve as an air freshener, with a very fresh and pleasing aroma.
Most container fruit trees are shipped to your home directly from southern state growers. They can ship to almost any state, the only exceptions being states with agricultural restrictions. In those states, you can normally purchase container fruit trees from in state growers. Indoor lemon trees will usually produce several pounds of fruit per years, a good return for the nominal cost of an indoor lemon tree.
If someone in your family is just getting started in gardening, an indoor lemon tree is a perfect choice. They'll be encouraged to enjoye the gardening hobby more and more after experiencing success growing fruit indoors. Best of all, indoor lemon trees and other container fruit trees can be grown just about anywhere.
Indoor lemon trees are so easy to grow that even someone with no gardening experience whatsoever should be successful. With few exceptions, there isn't much more to growing an indoor lemon tree other than plenty of sunlight and watering every 10 days or so. You can also place your indoor lemon tree outdoors during the warmer months - they'll love it!
Usually, hours of sunlight and moderate water are all you'll need to do. On occasion, you'll need to prune the tree, which is a very easy process. Doing so will result in productive yields of fruit every year, and a healthy, vibrant indoor lemon tree that is a proud addition to your home.
Indoor Lemon Trees and other container fruit trees are a fragrant, easy care addition to any living space, and ideal for any level of gardener. Visit us for availability and to discover the beauty of Indoor Lemon Trees.
