Yuzu (Citrus junos) is a fruit for the food garden, containers, borders, and accent planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It is an evergreen with a dense habit and fragrant flowers. Bees visit the blooms, and the plant grows at a moderate pace.
