Citrus x meyeri 'Lemonicious' pbr

Common Name: Lemonicious Dwarf Meyer Lemon

Description: Citrus x meyeri 'Lemonicious' PBR is a compact dwarf variety of the Meyer lemon, ideal for small gardens, patios, and balconies. This evergreen shrub produces full-sized, juicy lemons with a naturally sweet flavor, making them perfect for cooking, baking, and adding zest to beverages. From autumn through summer, 'Lemonicious' blooms with clusters of small, fragrant white flowers, which are followed by abundant yellow fruit. In Melbourne's climate, this variety thrives in full sun to part shade and well-drained soil. It's well-suited for growing in large pots or containers, making it a versatile choice for various garden settings. Regular watering is essential, especially during the establishment phase, and applying a citrus-specific fertilizer during the growing season will promote healthy growth and fruit production. Minimal pruning is required due to its dwarf nature, but occasional trimming can help maintain its shape and remove any dead or crossing branches.
