Meyer Lemon Potted Kit

Meyer Lemon is the lemon that chefs and home bakers reach for when they want lemon flavor without aggressive sharpness — sweeter, less acidic, and more floral than standard Eureka or Lisbon lemons, with thin smooth deep-yellow skin and dark yellow pulp that delivers a rich, fragrant citrus character outstanding for baking, cocktails, preserving, and fresh use. A cross between a lemon and a mandarin orange, it carries that heritage in its rounder shape, thinner skin, and distinctly sweeter juice that makes it more versatile and more immediately enjoyable than grocery store lemons. This kit makes growing your own easy: one Meyer Lemon tree arrives with a 10-inch Classic Prima planter and matching saucer, sized perfectly for the young tree with room to grow. Move it indoors before freezing temperatures in cooler climates and keep harvesting year-round.

Sweeter and More Floral Than Regular Lemons — The Chef’s Lemon

The Meyer Lemon’s sweetness is the quality that earned it a devoted following among serious cooks and home bakers. Standard lemons are assertively tart — genuinely useful in recipes that need acidity and punch, but too sharp for preparations where lemon flavor is the feature rather than a supporting note. Meyer Lemon’s lower acidity and floral sweetness shine in lemon curd, pound cake, lemon bars, preserved lemons, and any cocktail where the lemon flavor should be round and fragrant rather than sharp. The tree may bloom again while fruit is still growing, delivering multiple harvests.

Everything You Need — Tree, Pot, and Saucer Included

The kit includes three items: one Meyer Lemon tree in a 4-inch pot, one Classic Prima 10-inch planter, and one matching 10-inch saucer. The planter and saucer are made from durable, lightweight resin that resists cracking, chipping, and fading, practical for indoor and patio use and light enough to move easily when bringing the tree indoors for winter. Shipped as a 4–6 inch plant, mature size can be managed through pruning.

Grow Anywhere — Container-Ready for Any Climate

Meyer Lemon is perennial outdoors in Zones 8–11, but the container kit makes it genuinely growable anywhere. A sunny window or south-facing patio provides the six or more hours of sunlight it needs. Fertilize with a citrus-specific high-nitrogen fertilizer through spring and summer. Self-pollinating and capable of first harvest within a couple of years, it rewards patience with fragrant blooms and fresh lemons through the growing season.
