Our Feedback
I wanted to thank you for delivering the "Golden Wedding Anniversary" rose to our friends in Lincoln on their actual Anniversary. It was such prompt and excellent service. They were thrilled with the rose and I am very happy with the service. I shall certainly use you again.

Our Citrus trees have been specially selected to bring you some of the best varieties of lemon tree, orange tree and lime tree available.
Taste is the most discerning factor throughout our selection. All citrus trees listed within this category can be grown in containers; for many this is essential as they require protection and heat throughout the year - and if in containers they can be moved around under protection as required. More...
You don't have to live in a Mediterranean climate to enjoy Citrus trees all year round - as long as you have a warm, sunny spot inside or under cover (think greenhouse, glasshouse or polytunnel), you're all set to grow your own citrus fruit. Whether you're specifically after a lemon tree, orange tree or lime tree, you can look forward to your first home-grown yield with one of our young container-grown trees, supplied direct from our family-run nursery in Kent. All the Citrus trees that we sell are self fertile (self-pollinating) and can be grown as single trees in containers. Depending on the variety they should produce fruit from around early winter through to spring.
Lemon trees, lime trees and orange trees - in fact, all Citrus trees - require fertile, well-drained soil and a warm, sunny position. Lemon trees, lime trees, orange trees, and grapefruit trees are not hardy, with frosts and cold weather causing irreversible damage to blossom, fruit and foliage. This means that in Britain, any citrus fruit needs to be grown under protection during the winter.
And although we've done our best to provide you with Citrus trees that produce the best-tasting fruits, it's worth noting that the amount of heat that a Citrus tree receives can have a profound effect on the taste of the fruit. Growing your Citrus tree in a container will enable you to move the tree around during the year - bringing it outside to a warm, sunny spot in summer if required, and moving inside to a suitably heated position - but make sure that the plant is never allowed to completely dry out. Likewise, a waterlogged citrus tree will also fail to thrive!
Not actually a Citrus - but similar! Winter-hardy with small orange fruits, great for making marmalade and juice. Thorns are also good for treating toothache!
