lemon 'Four Seasons'
lemon Four Seasons
A remarkable, self fertile, heavy-cropping, little tree with glossy, dark green leaves, sometimes thorny stems and smooth-skinned, bright golden fruit with exceptional flavour.
'Four Seasons' is unique in that it keeps on producing flowers from spring to autumn, so it is possible to have flowers, small, un-ripened fruit as well as ready-to-pick lemons on the plant at the same time.
One of the hardiest lemon trees available, it can be grown on a sunny patio in summer, but will need an unheated conservatory or greenhouse to over-winter.
Unfortunately we cannot guarantee that any plant will be sent out with buds, flowers or developing fruit - and occasionally (because of their weight) fruit may become dislodged from the tree while in transit.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

How to care for Citrus × limon Four Seasons:
For the best flavour, leave citrus fruits on the tree until they naturally drop when lifted.
Water from the top, ensuring excess water drains away, and let the soil dry out between watering—adjusting frequency based on the season and plant conditions.
Position your citrus tree in bright light, away from radiators, and consider moving it outside during summer, bringing it back indoors before temperatures drop below 5°C. Use citrus feed with each watering in summer and every 10-14 days in winter. If new growth appears pale, apply a citrus feed to correct nutrient deficiencies. Grow in citrus compost, citrus compost, repotting or top-dressing in late winter.
