Properly caring for a grafted Meyer lemon tree facilitates fruit production in as little as two years. Seed grown trees fruit in four to seven years. Attractive, evergreen foliage and sporadic, fragrant flowering are among the reasons people like growing Meyer lemons. Production of the lemon fruit is an added bonus.
How the lemon looks on the outside is more important for Meyer lemons than it is for other types. Meyer lemons are ready to taste test when the color has changed to a greenish-yellow color. Other types of lemons, like Lisbon and Eureka, can be tested when the fruits turn yellow on the tree.
