?Plump Fruit? ?? Easy to Grow & Strong Fragrance?? Saipan Lemon Seedling - Actual Plant - A

The Saipan Lemon is said to be a variety introduced to Saipan in the past and then propagated domestically. It is a Eureka variety with a four-season fruiting habit, good flowering, and high fruit yield. It can be harvested from around September, with a high sugar content and a mellow flavor. It is also known as Green Lemon because it is used while the peel is still green. It is less cold-hardy than the Lisbon variety, so be careful not to expose it to cold winds in winter.
Lemons are somewhat sensitive to cold, but can be grown outdoors in warm regions and generally in areas along the Pacific coast. The flowers have a lovely fragrance, making it a wonderful ornamental tree for your garden. It can overwinter outdoors in locations that do not drop below -3°C. Harvest the fruit while it is still green, and store it in a dark place to develop a beautiful lemon color.
It is self-pollinating, so one tree will bear fruit. It can be grown in pots as well as planted in the ground.
