Lemon chicken and lemon meringue pie will never be the same once you've used fresh lemons grown on your patio or deck. This tree produces fragrant white flowers from spring through summer, singly or in clusters along the branching boughs. Then classic yellow fruits, 4 to 6" in length, but with a slightly sweeter, less tart taste than those in the grocery store, ripen in the winter. The "improved" Meyer lemon is both more cold and disease resistant than the original, and is an excellent choice for indoors, as well as outside culture. Ideal for balconies and small urban growing areas.
