Web SpecialsHere is the promise of charm and practicality in a single package. Meet Citrus limon ‘Ponderosa,’ The American Wonder Lemon. This plant will astonish all who receive it with both its beauty and unusual habit. The fun begins when the heavy surge of fragrant white flowers emerge each spring. Then tiny lemons appear. Wonder Lemons have the reputation for not knowing when “enough is enough.” They continue to grow to enormous proportions, often up to 5 lbs, even though the plant remains an easily manageable size.

Container Grown Citrus
Keep the root systems healthy and active. A period of dryness helps stimulate flowers and fruiting. Mimic Florida’s climate- wet summers and dry fall/winters.
Most important for potted citrus:
• Full sun and high light. The more the better.
• For faster growth and an active root system,
grow them warm.
• Do not over pot.
• Grow in clay pots for optimum root health.
• Fertilize spring through fall.
• High light aids in flowering and fruiting.
• Fertilize in growing season 1-2 times a month.
• Water when the soil is visually dry or at first signs of wilt.

Flowers after just 3 months! Review by Jon
How do you rate this product? I have only had this Lemon for 3-months now and it already has over 10 flowers on it. Most of them have not bloomed yet but the one that has smells great. Very surprised that I am getting flowers within 3 months. Seems like this should do very well. (Posted on 6/17/2015)

Beautiful! Review by Samantha
How do you rate this product? I just received my Ponderosa in the mail today. It is beautiful! It was packaged well and has dark glossy leaves. I am very impressed with the quality of the plant and the packaging. There were no broken leaves or branches. Thank you for taking great care in the packaging of my new plant! (Posted on 8/7/2014)
