Improved Meyer Lemon Bush

These bushes are the same species as our Improved Meyer Lemon Tree, but a younger form.

Looking to grow luscious lemons in a compact space? Citrus × meyeri 'Improved' is the perfect choice.

Introduced in the USA in 1908, this species is a hybrid of a lemon and an orange, with a subtle sweetness balancing the classic sour flavor. The fruits are versatile, perfect for finishing off a range of dishes in the kitchen.

As a bush, this species is compact and shrubby, ideal for planting in containers. Pair it with a terracotta pot to add a Mediterranean feel to your backyard.

Improved Meyer prefers warmer climates and grows best in USDA Zones 8-11. But those in cooler climates don’t have to miss out – simply keep your plant indoors or in a greenhouse for protection over winter.

This tree cannot be shipped to AL, AZ, CA, FL, GA, LA, OR, or TX.
