Meyer Lemon

Meyer Lemon
Latin name:
Meyer lemon
Common name:
lemon
Keywords:
meyer, lemon, citrus

Probably the hardiest and most popular lemon. Evergreen and dependable. Produces a medium sized lemon. Frost hardy

Grow preferably in open sunny area in good soil.

We recommend a fertiliser application of 3 times per year for best results - early Spring, early Summer and then a light application in Autumn as a feed thru to Spring.

Spraying - a copper spray in Winter to clean up any fungicide issues and then a Spring oil spray to rid any Thrip, Mite or Scale that may be evident.

N.B We only grow these in 25 litre easy lift bags and they will be 1.2 to 15m tall
