5 from 2 customers

Pittosporum eugenioides, commonly known as Tarata or Lemonwood, is a fast-growing native New Zealand tree valued for its glossy green leaves and lemon-scented foliage. It can reach 10 metres tall and makes an excellent shelter tree or native hedge. In spring, it produces clusters of small, yellowish flowers that are attractive to insects. Tarata is hardy, tolerates wind and drought once established, and is an excellent choice for native plantings or revegetation projects.

Why Buy a Lemon Tree Online?

Ordering a lemon tree online gives you access to a wider range of varieties than you’ll find at traditional garden centres. You can explore different lemon cultivars, compare care requirements, and choose the best option suited for your space, whether it’s a backyard orchard or a sunny patio. Our nursery offers only premium trees, carefully grown to thrive in New Zealand climates, and shipped safely to preserve their health.

Best Lemon Trees for Kiwi Gardens

Some of our most popular citrus options include the Lemon Meyer and Yen Ben (Double Grafted Lemon). This unique tree combines two sought-after varieties on a single rootstock, ensuring reliable harvests throughout the year and maximizing your fruit yield. Meyer lemons produce sweet, thin-skinned fruit, perfect for desserts, drinks, and zesting. Yen Ben lemons give you classic tart flavour with abundant juice. Double grafting means you’ll enjoy lemons for longer and get better adaptability to local growing conditions.

Tips for Growing Your Lemon Tree Online Purchase

Lemon trees thrive best in full sun, well-drained soil, and with shelter from harsh winds. Whether planting in the ground or in large containers, adequate watering and occasional feeding will keep your tree vigorous. If you want to add drought-tolerant companions or structure to your garden, consider pairing your new lemon tree with beauties like Kniphofia 'Lemon Fizz', a striking perennial with vivid yellow blooms, or shrubs like Illicium 'Lemon Sorbet' for year-round colour.

Urban Citrus and House Plant Choices

If your space is limited or you’re interested in indoor plants, complement your lemon tree purchase with foliage favourites such as Crassula ovata (Money Tree), a hardy succulent known for good fortune and easy care. Or, for lush native structure around your citrus grove, Pittosporum eugenioides (Tarata) is a reliable New Zealand evergreen with fragrant foliage.
