Hi There

I can understand why you would want to grow a lemon tree, I have a few in my garden, some fully mature and some just starting on their 2nd year.

The citrus family are beautiful all year round (especially in the winter when they are covered in delicious fruits or fragrant white blossoms) but very susceptible to cold and disease. The specially selected orange and lemon varieties grown for fruit are all grafted to improve their disease resistance.

You can grow them in pots or in the ground and the smell from the flowers is lovely!

I have attached an image of the lemon tree – I also have a gardening forum that might interest you – maybe see you there and chat one day :)
