Bought a Meyer Lemon Tree today!



John and I went to Lowe's this morning to buy our son-in-law, Ken a grill light for his birthday party today and we came home with that and a Meyer Lemon Tree for ourselves! I have always wanted one. I bought one many years ago but it didn't make it. We lived in NJ then and even though I brought it in in the Fall it didn't make it. I am really excited about having one and can't wait until it bears fruit and we can use our own lemons! I am going to put it in a container tomorrow and set it on the patio.

  1. I love lemon trees! Donna has one - named Lester - that did great last year. The lemons were a good size and tasted nice and tart. This year, lots of blossoms but no fruit. Of course, it might help if she watered it!

  3. Sherri, my parents have a lemon tree in AZ and the lemons are wonderful. I know you'll enjoy having this tree. I wish our climate would allow us to grow them!

  4. We have a Meyer lemon, too. Two of them. One is in the shade and doesn't do very well but the one in the sun produces a lot of lemons even with the bulbul constantly eating the buds. We love having the tree and you will, too.
