Eureka Lemon Non Grafted 4 Litre Pot Size

🌿 Eureka Lemon (Non-Grafted) – 4 Litre Pot | Citrus limon

Description / Feature:

The Eureka Lemon is a classic, evergreen citrus tree prized for its bright yellow, juicy fruit and year-round productivity. This non-grafted plant grows vigorously and reliably, making it a perfect addition to small gardens, courtyards, patios, or even larger containers. Its glossy green foliage and fragrant white blossoms add ornamental appeal while attracting pollinators. Eureka is an all-purpose lemon — ideal for home cooks, gardeners, and citrus lovers alike. 

Height & Habit:

In a 4 L pot, Eureka Lemon can be kept compact with regular pruning but has the potential to reach 3–6 m (10–20 ft) when planted in the garden if left untrimmed. In container culture, it’s easily maintained at a smaller size (around 1.2–1.8 m / 4–6 ft) with pruning and training. 

Culinary Uses:

Eureka lemons are known for their tangy, acidic juice and thick aromatic rind, making them a favourite for:

• Juicing & lemonade

• Cooking & baking (zest for flavour, juice for marinades)

• Salad dressings, sauces & preserves

• Cocktails & refreshing beverages

Their robust flavour and high juice content make them more acidic and versatile than milder lemon types. 

Growing Conditions – Perfect for Perth:

• Sun: Full sun exposure (min. 6 + hours/day) for best flowering and fruiting. 

• Soil: Well-drained, slightly acidic soil is ideal; great for Perth’s sandy loams when enriched with organic matter. 

• Water: Regular watering — keep soil consistently moist during hot periods, but avoid waterlogging. 

• Fertiliser: Feed with a citrus-specific fertiliser in early spring and late summer to support growth and crop load. 

• Climate: Suited to Mediterranean climates like Perth’s; frost-sensitive when young, so protect or move containers in cold snaps. 

Why Choose Non-Grafted?

Non-grafted Eureka lemons grown from seed develop strong root systems and are a great choice for growers who prefer traditional stock. They offer full lemon flavour and are a natural choice for edible gardens and sustainable homes.
