Dwarf Eureka Lemon Tree (Height: 2 - 3 FT Shape: Bushy)
Lemon lime trees are prized by home growers for their lush, evergreen foliage and juicy, piquant fruits. One of the most typical citrus trees found inside the house, in home gardens, or on patios is the Dwarf Eureka Lemon tree. Originally from California and grown from seeds that came from the Italian Citrus limon “Lunario” cultivar, the Eureka Lemon Tree (Citrus limon “Eureka”) is a true lemon tree that bears fruit and flowers all throughout the year. Therefore, the Eureka lemon is also called the ‘Four Seasons’ (Quatre Saisons). This lemon tree is exactly what you need to keep a constant supply of healthy and juicy fruit. Dwarf Eureka Lemon trees grow well in a pot and can be brought indoors during cold weather. When taken inside, this citrus tree can give your home a clean, fresh scent. You can use the lemons for cooking, baking, making lemonade, cocktails, and even cleaning. Eureka lemon trees are open-branching so they need very minimal pruning and have nearly no thorns so they are very easy to handle and are safe if you have children around. The Eureka Lemon tree produces large, vibrant yellow fruits that are carried at the end of branches so they are more exposed to the sun and ripen well even during the cold seasons. The peel of this luscious fruit is full of an oil causing the fruit to give off a strong citrus scent. The seedless, yellow or pink flesh of Eureka lemons is juicy and has a tangy, acidic flavor.
