Your local grocer is most likely teeming with varieties of flora, each with its various pros and cons. The multiple choices trees to put on your lawn, yard, or garden have been putting gardeners in dilemmas for ages. Chances are that you will never go wrong with a lemon tree for the following reasons. 1. Versatile The lemon tree is small enough to fit on even the tiniest of garden spaces while still being large enough to leave a lasting impression on your backyard. You can plant some varieties in vases that you can move inside and outside your house according to seasons and liking. Lemons also grow all year round. 2. Beauty Lemon trees are a beauty. They are one of the few trees that blend in with the natural scenery while still standing out. The citrus essence, together with white flowers, sprouting buds, and green leaves, will light up your garden. 3. Variety Lemon trees come in a variety of species and hybrids that can easily be tailored to your garden space. Depending on your taste or garden, you can get a dwarf-sized Citrus Tree or a standard-sized one. You also get lemons in acid varieties such as Lisbon and Eureka or sweet ones such as Meyer. 4. Nutrients Where do I even start, lemons are one of the healthiest fruits to ever sprout from this earth. Lemons are a rich source of Vitamin C and crucial minerals such as iron and potassium. In addition to all these, they are a rich source of carbs and antioxidants, which can fight cancer cells. Lemons have also been known to reduce severe symptoms of cold such as sore throats. 5. Companion Plants Lemon trees will turn your garden into a breathtaking ecosystem as they can grow with Basil, Thyme, Cilantro, and Rosemary, as companion plants. They can also be planted with Roses and Marigolds.
