Notes
'Variegated Pink Eureka' lemon (Citrus limon 'Variegated Pink Eureka') is a fruit tree for the food garden. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full or part sun. The lemons are streaked with green and creamy yellow, and the flesh is pink. The light green leaves have white and yellow margins, and fragrant white flowers open in spring and summer.
Pairs well with Sichuan pepper, Papyrus, and Red ginger.
