Non-GMO
Meyer lemons are smaller and rounder than traditional lemons, with a thin, smooth, and deep yellow to orange-yellow skin. The flesh of Meyer lemons is juicy, fragrant, and slightly sweeter than regular lemons. It has a less acidic taste, making it a favored choice for culinary applications.
Meyer lemon trees are compact and can reach heights of 6 to 10 feet (1.8 to 3 meters) when mature. They have dark green, glossy leaves and can produce fruit year-round in regions with mild climates. The trees are highly adaptable and can be grown both in the ground and in containers.
The fruit of the Meyer lemon tree is prized for its versatile culinary uses. The juice and zest of Meyer lemons are valued in cooking and baking, adding a unique and citrusy flavor to dishes, desserts, beverages, and sauces. They are particularly popular in recipes that benefit from their sweeter and less acidic characteristics.
Due to their attractive appearance, pleasant taste, and versatility, Meyer lemons have become a favorite among home gardeners and chefs alike. They are well-suited for home cultivation, provided they receive adequate sunlight, well-drained soil, and proper care.
