How Do You Grow Lemon Trees Indoors?
Lemon trees make a beautiful addition to any home. Their bright green leaves and luscious yellow fruit will brighten up any decor. Growing a lemon tree indoors is not hard and you will benefit from having fresh lemons throughout the year. Place the lemon tree in a sunny location, such as in front of a picture window or any window with preferably southern exposure. If needed, use a 40-watt fluorescent lights overhead to give the plant enough light. Water the tree every other day, keeping the soil moist. Place the pot in a tray of pebbles to allow for drainage and also to help with the humidity. Lemon trees don’t like a dry climate. Mist the leaves a couple of times weekly. Fertilize the plant both in late winter and early summer. Use a 20-10-10 acidic fertilizer or one specifically for citrus plants.
