Lemon trees produce wonderfully fragrant flowers that are generally white to creamy white inside. Flower buds and outer petals may show attractive pink, lavender, or purple tinges, depending on the cultivar and growing conditions.
Young lemons are typically deep green and gradually lighten as they mature, eventually developing their familiar bright yellow to golden-yellow skin. Fruit shape can range from rounded and oval to elongated with a noticeable pointed end.
The combination of glossy foliage, aromatic blossoms, and vivid fruits makes Lemon trees beautiful choices for edible landscapes, sunny patios, backyard orchards, and cottage-inspired citrus gardens.
