With their smooth, thin skin and juicy flesh, New Zealand Lemonade Lemons offer a hassle-free juicing experience! Enjoyed fresh or as a base for beverages, their naturally sweet flavor elevates any drink without the need for additional sweeteners, making them a favorite among those seeking a guilt-free and delicious citrus treat! To successfully cultivate this botanical rarity in Canada, they are easily grown in pots, which are moved indoors before frost and placed outdoors during the growing season on a sun drenched patio, balcony or deck. Adequate sunlight, well draining soil, and proper fertilization will ensure you get to reap a continued successful harvest. Harvesting time for Lemons is fairly flexible. Lemons harvested early will have a higher acid content compared to Lemons that are allowed to ripen longer on the tree. The bold golden yellow color combined with a nice weight, shiny skin and fragrant lemon smell of the fruit is the best indicator for harvest. With 2 main flushes of blooms in spring and fall as well as varying ripening times for each fruit this tree typically produces fruit year round, with peak fruiting occurring during the warmer months, allowing staggered picking through out the year. Note: the exact fruiting pattern may vary based on growing conditions and care.
