About this product

Bearss Lemon: Huge Lemons Overflowing with Juice Don't confuse it with the Bearss lime — this is a genuine lemon (Citrus limon 'Bearss'), a Florida selection of the classic Sicilian "Lisbon-type" lemon. It rewards you with large, bright-yellow fruit that is exceptionally juicy and brisk-acidic, the way a real lemon should taste, plus a thick, oil-rich rind that makes the most fragrant zest you can grow. Best of all, the fruit is nearly seedless, so juicing and slicing are effortless. Vigorous and heavy-bearing, a Bearss can carry fruit through much of the year and often holds ripe lemons on the tree alongside new blossoms. Why You'll Love the Bearss Lemon Intensely fragrant zest. The rind is unusually high in aromatic oils, so a single peel perfumes a whole kitchen — perfect for limoncello, baking, and finishing oils where the zest is the star. Juicy, true-lemon tartness. Unlike sweeter Meyer-types, the Bearss delivers the clean, bracing acidity that classic lemonade, marinades, and seafood call for. Nearly seedless. Few to no seeds means clean juice and tidy slices, with none of the picking-out that bottled juice avoids and ordinary lemons don't. Vigorous and heavy-bearing. A productive, fast-growing tree that sets large crops and tends to fruit over an extended season rather than one short window. Bred for warm, humid growing. Selected in Florida, it handles heat and humidity better than many imported lemon strains. Evergreen and glossy, with white, sweetly scented spring blossoms, the Bearss Lemon is as handsome in the landscape as it is useful in the kitchen — planted in the ground where winters are mild, or grown in a large container that summers outdoors and shelters inside where frost threatens. Please note: This tree ships in a citra pot—a tall, narrow container that promotes vertical root growth and prevents root circling.
