Citrus meyeri

Meyer Lemon Tree is one of the most, if not the most, popular citrus tree for home gardens. This tree usually grows to to about 13 feet, which makes it one of the smaller lemon trees around. The lemons produces by this tree are smooth and thin skinned and are not as large as the lemons from Eureka or Lisbon but are a more attractive looking, which could well be the reason why they are more popular at supermarkets. They prefer warm climates and are actually pretty hardy. 16" pot size.

Content If your looking for a small hedging plant then this is the one for you. Dutch Box is a dwarf box that grows with dense, glossy green foliage and works well in shaded areas. Dutch Box also likes part shade in moist, well-drained soil, but will tolerate a wide range of soils and conditions. It should be clipped to maintain a formal shape. Slight yellow discolouration of the leaves on Dutch box may occur during cooler months, but don't worry, this is normal! This is remedied by applying with Dolomite Lime, and a slow release fertilizer a month later. Or you can just leave your Dutch Box alone and it will come back lovely and green and spring.
