They are wonderful
The tree was shipped quickly and packaged perfectly. I gave it as a Christmas gift. The one I purchased for myself almost 2 years ago started producing limes about 6 months ago, and they are wonderful. I planted it in a planter so it could be moved inside during cold weather. US Citrus Nursery is professional and trustworthy.

The entire process was wonderful.
The entire process was wonderful. It was a gift to my daughter-in-law and she loves it. It has lost a few leaves, but I know that is normal for the transition. I am teaching my daughter-in-law to garden. Thank you very much for the great experience!

Meyer (Valley) Lemon Tree
The Juicy Secret to Backyard Abundance
Imagine stepping into your backyard, plucking a golden Meyer lemon straight off your own tree, and slicing into pure sunshine. This isn’t just a lemon tree, it’s your ticket to endless zest, gourmet cocktails, and brag-worthy homegrown citrus. The Meyer Valley Lemon Tree is the king of them all. By far, the most popular citrus tree grown in America’s backyards!
The Story Behind It
The Meyer lemon isn’t your average lemon—it’s a special hybrid believed to be part lemon, part mandarin orange. First introduced to the U.S. from China in the early 1900s, it quickly became a favorite among chefs, home gardeners, and citrus lovers.
In South Texas, the Meyer is so popular it’s earned a nickname: “Valley Lemon.” Families have passed down trees for generations, slicing the fruit and eating it whole, juice running down their hands, salt balancing its sweet-tart flavor.
The “Valley” selection is especially prized for its rich flavor, juicy yield, and strong growth. It combines the sweetness of its mandarin heritage with the zing of a true lemon, producing a fruit that’s as versatile as it is delicious.
Our nursery trees are carefully grown for early production and easy success, so even beginners get professional results.

The Lemon Tree That Sparked a New Tradition
Every year, our customer's friends gather for lemon drop martinis, all thanks to the bounty from her 18-month-old Meyer Lemon tree.
From blooms, to baby lemons, to a basketful of golden fruit!
Hi! I wanted to share a picture of my first upcoming Meyer Lemon harvest. My tree is roughly 18 months old, it came as a tiny tree, and I can’t believe what it is producing for me this fall! I have a group of ladies who wait each year for my lemons to be harvested and then we gather here for lemon drop martinis! 🤣💛🍋 Thank you US Citrus Nursery!

Great merchandise and excellent customer service
I highly recommend doing business with US Citrus Nursery. After a couple of mistakes, some not of their own making, they replaced a Moro with a Tarocco that was my original buy. A mistake by UPS really messed up the whole thing, but USCitrusNursery came through and eventually sent the right one at no extra cost. One really cannot ask for more. And as far as the plants, I am also a very happy customer and look forward to next year to do business with them again.

Happy little trees
Recieved happy and wonderful trees. I look forward so seeing them thrive. I am a researchaholic, this Is hands down the best place for citrus trees in Texas. They are expertly packed and cared for just as you would hope and even then some. Free fertilizer and the free shipping are just icing on the cake. Thank you guys for being so great with pricing on the tree pack.
I am very happy with the purchase.
Great product. I received it without any problem and very healthy. I was worried that since it was being shipped to me that it would arrive unhealthy and dry. It was the opposite. I am very happy with the purchase.

Plant is healthy & super fast shipping!
I'm writing this upon just receiving the plant post-shipping. I've ordered a few plants over the years through mail and this is by far the happiest plant I've ever found in a box. With this plant's health and the guide they sent, feeling good about transplanting soon.
