Citrus — Meyer Lemon
Meyer is a compact, productive lemon with a distinctive mild flavour and juicy, orange-yellow fruit. The fruit is less acidic than traditional lemons, making it particularly good for drinks, desserts, dressings and fresh use. Its compact growth habit and excellent performance in pots make it a popular choice for smaller gardens, courtyards and patios.

Meyer is one of the more cold-tolerant lemons and is well suited to Tasmanian conditions when planted in a sunny, sheltered position. It can be kept particularly compact in a large pot and responds well to regular pruning.
