Citrus Trees

Lemons, limes, oranges, grapefruit and specialty citrus can thrive beautifully in Southern California with the right site and care.

Visit our citrus section to compare varieties and sizes in person, and ask us what will work best for your space.

Choosing a tree

Three questions before you buy.

🏡

Where will it grow?

Think about in-ground versus container growing, available room and the mature canopy.

☀️

How much sun?

Start by understanding the light your planting site actually receives through the day.

🍽️

What will you eat?

A productive tree is much more rewarding when it produces fruit your household genuinely enjoys.
