Bearss Lemon Tree - Live Plants in 1 Gallon Pots - Florida Only - Cannot Ship Out of Florida - Beautiful Fruit Tree for Patio and Garden

The Bearss Lemon Tree, also known as the Persian or Tahiti Lemon, is a prolific, seedless citrus variety prized for its smooth-skinned, juicy fruit and vigorous growth. With its glossy evergreen foliage and fragrant white blossoms, the Bearss Lemon adds ornamental value while also being a highly productive fruiting tree. This cultivar produces medium to large lemons with a thin rind, rich lemon flavor, and a tangy aroma that makes them ideal for culinary use, from baking to cocktails. Unlike other lemon varieties, Bearss Lemons are typically seedless and ripen to a pale yellow or light green when mature. Compact in size, the Bearss Lemon Tree is well-suited for container growing on patios or indoors with adequate sunlight. When planted in the ground in warmer climates, it can reach a mature height of 10–15 feet, but its size can be easily managed through pruning. This variety is self-pollinating, which means a single tree can produce fruit without the need for a second pollinator. Adaptable and productive, the Bearss Lemon Tree is a top choice for home gardeners seeking reliable yields, attractive foliage, and zesty, flavorful fruit nearly year-round in warm climates.

For indoor growing, position near a bright, south-facing window or supplement with grow lights to maintain healthy foliage and flower production.Watering Needs: Maintain consistently moist but well-drained soil. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Protect from temperatures below 32°F by bringing potted trees indoors or using frost cloths. Ideal indoor temperatures range from 60–80°F for steady growth and fruiting.Physical Characteristics: Features glossy, dark green leaves and clusters of fragrant white blooms that develop into medium to large, seedless lemons. The fruit is round to slightly oval, with smooth skin and a bright, tart flavor—ripening typically in late winter to early spring.
