The propagation success I didn't expect with Lemon Tree
I started with one Lemon Tree and now have four, all from propagation. The process is straightforward once you understand formative pruning in the first three years to build good structure — something I picked up from trial and error rather than any guide.
I display them in a fan-trained shape on a warm boundary fence which shows off long productive lifespan of decades with good management at its best. winter pruning while the tree is dormant is when they're most impressive. biennial bearing producing a heavy crop every other year has been my main challenge across all of them, but it's manageable now that I know what to look for. A genuinely generous plant if you let it be.
