Meyer Lemon

Frank Nicholas Meyer famously travelled to China in 1908 and brought back to the United States what would become his namesake, the Meyer Lemon. The fruit has grown in popularity and is a favorite of many renowned chefs. The tree also grows fragrant white flowers and can thrive indoors and outdoors (In warm climates). Grow your own lemons with a Meyer Lemon tree!

Depending on season, plants range from 18-22 inches tall and 6-8 inches wide. Plants are shipped in standard black one gallon growing pots.

 

The Meyer lemon produces clusters of white flowers with a purple base that will freshen up any room with their citrus fragrance.
It can take up to 6 months for Meyer lemons to mature, so you'll have to be patient. When ripe, the fruit will be slightly soft to the touch. With low levels of acidity, the Meyer lemon has a sweet taste. The vibrant yellow zest is one of the most prized parts of the Meyer lemon.

We ship our trees from the farm on Monday and Wednesday mornings only. This guarantees three day shipping for each order.

*PLEASE NOTE - We do not currently ship to, AZ, CA, LA, HI, TX, Puerto Rico, Guam, U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and Northern Mariana Islands, any freight forwarding locations, hotels, PO Boxes, or Military (AFO/FPO).

Growing citrus indoors (no matter where you are) is easy!

Regardless of your level of gardening experience, if you have daily direct sunlight available, your tree can thrive and flourish indoors!

Wow!!

The moment I brought this plant into my home, it made an unforgettable impression with its flowers that released a unforgettable fragrance. I am wondering if it's even possible to have too many of this plant. I want to fill every corner of my home and garden with them if I could!

This is actually the second time I’ve purchased plants from Via Citrus, and once again, I’m thoroughly impressed. You can genuinely sense that these plants have been nurtured with love and care. Each one feels like a little piece of their farm has been transported into my home. It’s an honor to have these beautiful plants in my space, and I sincerely hope to care for them as beautifully as they have been tended to before arriving in my hands.

Wow, super impressed with the tree that arrived! It had so many flower buds and small fruit already - I just gave it a good drink and some light and after a week, the flowers are already opening up! It smells so good, liked I’ve cleaned my house 😆. Thank you!

A happy lemon tree

My new Meyer lemon tree is very happy and is enjoying his new surroundings. He is looking forward to warmer weather when he can go outside, but for now he is very content with his grow lite environment.
