Bloomsz Citrus Dwarf Eureka Lemon Tree
$54.99
Add the incredibly fresh, citrus scent of lemon blossoms to your home by growing a lemon tree! Extremely fragrant white flowers bloom in spring and summer among attractive, glossy green leaves. As lemons begin to appear and mature, they help to provide visual interest for the remainder of the year. Lemon trees grow well indoors while providing edible fruit to enjoy in beverages, in cooking, and as garnishes.

Planting/Growing Information
Growing Instructions for Planting in the Ground:
- Choose your planting site. Trees should be planted 15’ apart and 15’ (dwarfs 8’) away from the house or other large trees. Citrus trees do not like standing water. They prefer sandy soils. A site that receives full sun works best, but at least 50% sun is needed. Planting on the southern side of a house, lake, or other structure that offers wind protection will help protect your tree from cold.
- Clear away weeds and grass. Dig a hole 8-10” larger than the root ball of the tree.
- IMPORTANT: Fill the hole with water.
- Remove the tree from the pot and place it in the water-filled hole. Plant at the level it was grown in the nursery (the same level as the top of the root ball). Do not put the bud union (graft) below the soil.
- Add soil back to the hole filling all air pockets under and around the root ball. (THIS IS A CRITICAL STEP.)
- Newly planted trees should be watered regularly (daily for the first week) for the first three months if rains are inadequate. After the first week, allow the soil to dry down before watering.
- DO NOT MIX FERTILIZER IN THE HOLE BEFORE PLANTING. However, you can spread fertilizer on the ground around the tree the same day you plant it. Fertilize at least every 3-4 months (November, March, June, and August). You can fertilize more often, just reduce the amount. Use a citrus fertilizer at a rate of 1-2 lbs. for every year of age. Fertilizer should be applied around the drip line of the tree, not up to the trunk. Fertilizer should contain minor elements, not just N-P-K. You can also use slow release fertilizer. Follow the instructions on the bag.
