Why Meyer Lemon Trees?
Meyer Lemons are different from the small, tart and acidic lemons at your grocery store because the fruit is literally a cross between traditional sour lemons and sweet oranges – yes, you get both sweet and savory flavors from each squeeze of this world-beating fruit!
As you know, the fruit available at your grocery store is not chosen for flavor but rather shelf life – that is why the lemons available to you are small with very thick skin. Meyer Lemons are not available in grocery stores because the fruit skin is so wonderfully thin that it would bruise while riding in a crate – however, the thin skin is perfect for home chefs that want tantalizingly fresh fruit right off the branch! The thin skin allows the citrus juices to develop fully, making it the perfect raw fruit for juices, desserts, and flavoring.
Can I grow it? YES, YOU CAN! The Meyer Lemon Tree has remarkable cold and heat tolerance so anyone in the country can grow it – if your winters get cold, simply bring your Meyer Lemon Tree indoors for the winter. Our trees max out at around 8 feet so you don’t have to worry about them out-growing your space. And when you bring it indoors, you can enjoy the jasmine-citrus fragrance throughout those long winter months. If your sun exposure or growing conditions are less than ideal, then we recommend you start with one of our larger trees. They're already at a heavy fruiting size, with well-developed branching structures. Some of these trees have been grown for up to 4-5 years and have fruited for several seasons.
Place your order NOW and have your own Meyer Lemon Tree delivered right to your door.
Looking for that unique gift? Look no further! It’s the gift that truly keeps on giving – a memorable keepsake to commemorate holidays, housewarmings, birthdays, bereavements – this tree will produce fruit for decades and every time someone picks a lemon they will think of you!
Why Fast-Growing-Trees.com is Better
Are all Meyer Lemon Trees equal? No! A Meyer Lemon Tree from Fast Growing Trees is different:
• Our Meyer Lemon Trees are greenhouse-grown. We control how much light, heat, and water the trees receive to ensure you get the best tree imaginable- many trees that we ship to customers already have fruit on them!
• Our Meyer Lemon Trees are grown in their existing pots. Unlike the violent process of digging a tree out of the ground, our trees are nurtured to full potential without disrupting the roots so you receive the happiest and healthiest tree available.
• Fast Growing Trees only sells the “Improved” Meyer Lemon variety – the only cultivar that has proven disease-resistant capabilities.
• When you order our larger-sized Meyer Lemon Tree, you can look forward to faster fruiting...even in the first year of growth! Our larger sizes are perfect for those who don't want to wait to harvest delicious lemons.
You’ve heard the chatter, now it’s time to try for yourself – this is the tree that so many home chefs have been successful with – start enjoying that sweet fruit immediately and order yours today!

Great tree!
It seems to be doing very well. It seems strong, straight, and has great color. The flowers give me hope for lemons this season!
Tree is green and healthy
This tree is a replacement of a tree that didn’t thrive. Customer service was great replacing my tree with a tree that has been doing well.
9 Months Later
I bought this Meyer Lemon Tree on February 6th 2024. This photo is 9 months later on November 10th, 2024!!! All I can say is WOW!!! I had to support the branch with a piece of a pool noodle but it’s doing AWESOME!! Thank You FGT!!!
Great Purchase
My Meyer Lemon Tree arrived well packaged and healthy. After planting, I waited for new growth but didn't see anything (probably growing roots) for two weeks. Then the new growth started and has doubled the foliage in this same amount of time! Very pleased and already starting to prune and shape tree.
Redeemed with beautiful lemon tree
Took off a star because my original order arrived dead. It was a brown stick with no leaves. Fast growing trees fixed the issue and sent me a new healthy tree a few weeks later.
