Citrus-Lemon limon x reticulata ‘New Zealand Lemonade’

Citrus limon x reticulata 'New Zealand Lemonade' has fruit sweet like oranges but with a lemon flavour like lemonade.

Citrus limon x reticulata ‘New Zealand Lemonade’ has a lime appearance but it yellows as it ripens. The fruit is sweet as oranges but with a flavour of a mild lemon reminiscent of lemonade. This is a semi-dwarf lemon tree. All of our citrus are grafted onto C-35 citrange, trifoliate orange, or other semi-dwarfing rootstock which confer good hardiness and production while reducing overall tree size.
