Plant Description

Citrus limon cv ETNA (extra red fruits) is a distinctive cultivar of lemon renowned for its striking red-hued fruits. This evergreen tree typically reaches heights of 3 to 6 meters, boasting glossy, dark green leaves with a leathery texture. The fragrant white flowers emerge singly or in clusters, emitting a sweet, citrusy scent. Its most remarkable feature is the extra red fruits, which start green and ripen to a vibrant red, offering a visual twist to the traditional lemon. The fruits are slightly larger than typical lemons, with a tart, juicy interior.

Lemon trees not only provide delicious fruits but also add ornamental value to gardens and outdoor spaces with their lush foliage and fragrant flowers. They are a popular choice for home gardens, especially in regions with suitable climates.
