2-3 Foot Meyer Lemon Tree in 3.5 Gallon Grower's Pot

DON'T BUY THIS! This is a nice little tree, but the pot arrived very dented and bent, and when I contacted the seller, their attitude was that it's not supposed to be kept in the pot long term. I guess they should put that in the description, then, instead of saying you can put the plant either indoors or outdoors. Repeated emails to them have been ignored. I really don't want to have to replant this outdoors. Also, the plant kind of leans to the side. I hope it's going to even out and straighten up. I look forward to seeing it grow, and I hope it survives. I'm good at killing plants, so I bought a bunch on Amazon that say they're indestructible or hard to kill. That's what I need!

I purchased this Meyer Lemon Tree for my daughter for her birthday. It arrived in great condition, bigger than expected and the leaves popped out quickly. It seems very easy to maintain. She mists it everyday and says that it seems very healthy and vibrant. All in all we are very happy with the product and would highly recommend purchasing from this vendor.

Editing Review after speaking with Mike at Larry's Orchard.Edited again, end of SummerEdited: 1 year later.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------DO not expect something to show up that looks like the Amazon picture - you will be VERY disappointed.Mike tells me that Amazon has their own picture, and as a result, Larry's gets a lot of disappointed customers.I uploaded pictures of what I received - which was a 33" tall stick with some leaves on top.----------------------------------------Mike assured me that this is what a 2 year old tree looks like (and that is what I received a 2 year old - not 3 year old tree).I planted it in a pot, added Citrus fertilizer and am hoping for the best.The customer service at Larry's was good - and they offered to take the tree back at no charge for shipping.----------------------------------------2nd Edit: August 26th 2013The tree has been watered, fertilized, and out on the back deck all summer...It is doing well and has filled in - and looks healthy - and a lot like the other pictures - but without the fruit yet.Mike was right - patience was the key.---------------------------3rd Edit: June 8 2014The tree has a ton of fruit.Was outside all last summer; Inside all winter (where I pollinated myself) and outside again since April.At least a dozen fruit. Some quite big - BUT - unless lemons suddenly turn Yellow at the last minute - I'm beginning to think I may have a lime tree and not a lemon tree.(Will try to post Pictures).

This is the saddest little tree I have ever seen. Maybe 10 leaves. So disappointed.

Jeff says:REVISION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Since writing the review that follows: two things happened.*FIRST, Leonard (my stick with a few small leaves - I gave it a name) got all the best things I could give it, and a few days ago, started shooting out branches all over. At the same time, without my asking, the seller sent me another lemon tree: this one was an older bigger stick with some bigger leaves. Whenever I get lemons, and I'm sure I will some day (not this year), they will be my own organic lemons. I really appreciate what this seller did of his own volition. I would purchase again. To recap: give your stick lots of love, miracle grow soil for citrus, and stick in some miracle grow fertilizer spikes, then give it a few weeks to get settled. It will do nothing, then it comes alive**Don't forget, it won't look like the picture, but it is alive and healthy.... I still think the picture is the problem, but the seller is a good one.my previous comment on donna's reviewThis woman is 100% correct. AND I note that if what she got was what a 2-3yr old tree looks like, why is that not the picture posted? Fraud in the inducement? Come on. I have gotten the best citrus soil , miracle grow for citrus, and I'm doing everything possible to make this stick grow. I'll repost within 4-6 weeks. I have successfully grown various types of melons, tomatoes, cucumbers, various types of squash, and many types of flowers and house plants. I have a green thumb and if it doesn't work for me, it doesn't work.

When it arrived it was a lemon stick with a few leaves here and there (3-5). It bloomed (!) and looked to be trying to make lemons but then everything fell off of it. We were left with a lemon stick (no leaves). Now, with a little care, the leaves are coming back. Time will tell. But don't think you are getting anything like the picture. For the most part even the pictures of the customer loaded photos from people complaining were better looking trees.Edit (3/26/2014): The stick has recovered its leaves and has been doing well under a grow light for most of the winter. While it still does not look like the healthiest of trees, I expect that warm weather and real sunlight will result in the tree we had hoped for at the beginning. I am not increasing the rating of this product because it took far too much effort to save this tree.Update (1/18/2015): After the better part of two years of care, I finally got two lemons from what was once my lemon stick! Turns out I don't really like the flavor of Meyer lemons :) . But the tree is alive, has leaves and is producing fruit.

The tree was probably OK when it left the Nursery. But it was turned upside down and mishandled in shipping It arrived here with bare roots and no leaves with the soil scattered throughout the shipping containerI repotted it and am hoping for the best.It did not resemble the picture.Don Hatler

I would give it zero stars if I could. This product came delivered in a 4x4 box, about 2 feet high. Hardly enough room for the tree to grow. Several of the branches were cut just to fit the tree into the box. The pot in the picture is not what it came in. I previously ordered a Meyer lemon tree from another company and I got exactly what was in the picture. Do not order this lemon tree especially when you have other options out there.
