If you are only going to grow just one fruit tree in your garden then it must be the essential lemon. Lemons are full of Vitamin C and flavour and so good for culinary and medicinal purposes. At Wairere we have a selection of lovely lemons to choose from. Lemon ‘Meyer' which is a reliable year round cropper with large fruit that are very juicy, Lemon ‘Eureka' for that sharp acid tang, perfect for Gin and Tonic, or you may prefer the milder flavour of Lemon ‘Lemonade'. We also stock Lemon ‘Villa Franca' and ‘Lisbon'. Most varieties are available in several specifications from dwarf to standard. Lemons are also quite happy to grow in a pot or container as long as they are well watered and fed. So take a browse through our selection. You can pop into our Nursery at 826 Gordonton Road, R D 1, Hamilton or simply shop on-line from our secure web-site. The lemon tree of your choice will be carefully packaged and freighted direct to your door.
