Lemon tree

Scientific Name:
Citrus × limon

The lemon tree thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies while providing shelter for small birds and insects, thus supporting orchard biodiversity. Rich in vitamin C, lemons boost immunity, aid digestion, and offer antimicrobial benefits. Traditionally, they are used to treat sore throats and promote skin health.
