Meyer (Dwarf)

Meyer Dwarf is a compact form of the beloved Meyer lemon — a cross between a lemon and mandarin producing smooth-skinned, fragrant, slightly sweeter and less acidic fruit than true lemons. Ideal for containers, courtyards and small gardens. Prolific and nearly year-round fruiting. Meyer is by far the most popular lemon in NZ home gardens. Self-fertile. Available at all major NZ nurseries.
