MEYER LEMON 
A DWARF TREE (OR BUSH) WHICH BEARS FRUIT VERY YOUNG. READY NOW. 
Can be grown ANYWHERE! Imagine growing and picking lemons in your own home. The 
dwarf characteristics of these lemons allows them to be grown in pots. Accordingly, they may be 
taken indoors or placed in conservatories in climates where the winters are severe, and then re¬ 
turned to the yard, porch or patio during the 
, IS 
balance of the year. 
Ornamental Value. These plants have shiny dark 
green leaves with deep orange oval shaped lemons 
and sweetly scented flowers larger than orange blos¬ 
soms. They make ideal house plants, or porch and 
garden specimens. 
Quality and Use of Fruit. Meyer lemons bear a 
large fruit of exceptional quality which may be used 
for the same purposes as the ordinary commercial 
lemons. 
Size of Plants Offered. Only two-year plants out of 
4-inch pots are offered this spring. These plants 
should bloom and set fruit this coming summer. The 
illustration at the left is of a three-year-old plant. 
Note the half matured fruit. 
Cultural Instructions. Plant in any good garden 
loam, which allows fair drainage. Plant in 5-inch pots 
upon receipt. When the 5-inch pot becomes slightly 
root bound transfer to a pot one inch larger, and so 
on. It does not hurt these plants to become slightly 
pot bound. 
Fertilize frequently but lightly with any good com¬ 
mercial plant food. 
Water often enough so the plant never suffers from 
drought. 
Meyer Lemon plants out of 4-inch pots. S1.00 each,
