This is our lemon tree. Becky received this as a gift Christmas before last. The first year it gave us about a dozen very nice lemons. It produced without much attention from us. Becky tried and tried to raise lemons in Florida, but it was not to be.
This year many of the lemon buds dropped off in the spring. I think it was because we jostled it around too much. I think we finally have it well situated and it seems strong. It has some lemons developing.
Lemons growing in Arkansas - who would have thought?

Do you have to bring it inside in the winter?
Yes, it has to come in. We bring it in when it is below freezing. Last winter we got a thing with rollers and rolled it in and out according to the temperature trends. There seems to be enough light in the dining room to keep it going through the winter.
I'm going to work to prune and shape it so's that it is more compact and will move in and out easier.
