Thompson & Morgan

A fabulous variety bearing large and thick-skinned lemons – With a foil of glossy, dark foliage, the delicate, tiny white flowers fill the air with their sweet fragrance from April to June. The fruits of the Lemon may take up to a year to ripen but are well worth the wait. Lemons can be harvested as they ripen and once picked, will keep for up to 2 weeks. Plant citrus trees in patio containers in a mix of ericaceous compost and neutral, soil-based compost such as John Innes No. 3. Repot the plant at its original soil level and firm well into the new container. Water well and position in a frost-free position in full sun. Stand citrus trees outside from May to October. Water freely in summer and mist leaves daily to increase humidity and discourage pests. Feed with citrus plant fertiliser every 2 weeks. Move plants indoors from October to a bright, frost-free position (4-12°C) away from cold draughts and radiators. Reduce watering in winter but do not let the plant dry out completely. Too much or too little water may cause the fruits to drop.
