Common Name: Eureka Lemon

Description: Eureka Lemon is a popular citrus variety known for producing large, juicy lemons year-round. Its bright yellow fruits and fragrant white blossoms make it a stunning addition to any garden. This tree is perfect for those who love fresh lemons for culinary use, whether in beverages, desserts, or savory dishes.

Growing Tips:
– Sunlight: Requires full sun, ideally 6-8 hours per day, to thrive and produce optimal fruit.
– Soil: Prefers well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0). Sandy loam is ideal.
– Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.
– Climate: Prefers warm, frost-free climates. Eureka Lemon can tolerate some cold but should be protected from heavy frost. It’s well-suited for Mediterranean-like climates.
– Fertilization: Use a balanced citrus fertilizer every 6-8 weeks during the growing season (spring through summer) to encourage healthy growth and fruiting.
– Pruning: Light pruning in late winter to early spring helps maintain a manageable size and removes any dead or weak branches.

Harvest: Produces fruit year-round, with peak seasons in winter and spring. Lemons can be harvested when they turn a rich yellow color.

Uses: Eureka Lemons are perfect for juicing, zesting, cooking, and adding a fresh, tangy flavor to a variety of dishes and drinks.
