About the Citrus × limon 'Eureka'
The Citrus × limon 'Eureka' is a popular and versatile lemon tree with glossy green leaves. This evergreen tree produces beautiful white blossoms that release a wonderfully sweet fragrance. The tree bears elongated, bright yellow lemons with thick skin. The 'Eureka' is self-pollinating, meaning no second lemon tree is needed for fruit production.
The 'Eureka' lemon tree grows best in a warm, sunny and sheltered location with well-drained, slightly acidic soil. The 'Eureka' can flower and produce fruit several times a year, allowing the lemons to ripen at different times. During the winter months, the tree should be kept in a bright, cool and frost-free location. Once temperatures rise again in spring, the tree can be placed outdoors on the terrace or balcony. With the right care, this Mediterranean tree makes a beautiful addition to any garden, terrace or balcony.
Fruit Quality
The lemons of the 'Eureka' are elongated in shape and have a beautiful, bright yellow colour with a firm, thick skin. The flesh is wonderfully juicy and has a fresh, tangy flavour. These lemons are rich in juice and ideal for use in drinks, dishes and desserts. The aromatic peel is also excellent for culinary use.
