A space-saving dream! What is better than being able to pick fresh citrus from your own lemon or lime tree? Being able to pick both! This new idea is the best of both worlds. It's a Lemon tree AND a Lime tree growing together in one container!

This isn't a graft, it is actually two individual small-sized trees growing in one container. Why? So you can save a ton of space while enjoying the most popular home Citrus tree varieties - the super-popular Meyer Lemon (Citrus limon 'Meyer Lemon Improved') and Bearss Lime (Citrus aurantiifilia 'Bearss') together as one!

These two varieties are slow-growing and easily kept pruned to form a single, beautiful multi-trunk tree. These are two of the easiest citrus to grow in pots no matter what your climate.

Planting and Application:

Plant these ornamentals as a specimen or focal point tree or as a unique front entry accent! Container Trees add an exotic flair around your patio or poolside, and tucks perfectly onto porches and balconies! Dont forget these curiosities are the perfect gift tree - so surprise that Chef in your life!

You can leave the Lemon & Lime trees to grow together in a single pot, just moving to a bigger pot every couple of years. If you decide that you want to plant them in the ground, we've situated them so that they will grow together to become one amazingly productive tree.

#ProPlantTips for Care:

The only extra attention these guys need is a double dose of fertilizer since two robust trees are growing in one pot. Add some full sun and very well-drained soil for the most fruit and best health. Otherwise, they are a cinch to grow!

Protecting Container Citrus From Cold

Although it's famous for growing in warmer regions, it can also thrive in colder areas as long as the tree is brought indoors prior to the first frost of winter.

If you're growing these tropical trees in the ground in the lowest of their favored growing zones, they need to be planted in a sheltered spot to avoid the worst of the chill. If a spot like that is unavailable, then you are better off planting in a large, deep container.

In borderline growing zones, begin slowly acclimating your tree indoors or into a protected location, eventually moving your tree inside in bright indirect sun for the winter if the temperatures in your area ever dip below that 40F range. In spring, reverse this process and begin acclimating your tree to again be back out in the full sun all summer. This reduces stress and leaf drop.

  • Full sun & moderate moisture - let dry out between waterings
  • Robust rootstock means great fruit production
  • Best with a Consistent Fertilizing
  • Citrus Pruning is best done in late winter
  • Slightly acidic, very well-drained, enriched soil
