Key Features

The Meyer lemon tree in a 1-gal container from Florida features glossy, oval leaves, fragrant white flowers about 1 inch in size, and produces small, round, sweet-tart lemons with a smooth skin.

Special considerations

Meyer lemon trees in a 1-gal container from Florida require well-draining soil, regular watering, and protection from frost, needing special care and conditions for optimal growth.

Growing and Care Instructions

Meyer lemon trees thrive in well-draining, acidic soil with regular watering (allowing the top inch to dry out), require full sun (8-12 hours daily), tolerate temperatures between 50°F to 85°F, benefit from a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during growing season, and should be pruned annually to maintain shape and remove dead wood.

  • Fertilizing

    Fertilize every 6-8 weeks during the growing season.

  • Watering

    Water when the top inch of soil is dry.

  • Light Requirements

    Full sun to partial shade.
