Date
Collected: April 4, 2012
Location Collected: The Lemon Tree pictures were taken at a local flower store in Mar Vista.
Clade: The Citrus Lemon is a vascular plant. The plant belongs to the dicot angiosperms and produces fruit.
Habitat:
The lemon attains best quality in the coast where the summers are too cool for
proper ripening of the oranges and grapefruits. A temperature of twenty degrees
Fahrenheit will severely damage the citrus lemon. It is widely known that the
lemon tree can grow in infertile, poor soil.
Nativity:
The great lemon is native to Asia although it is widely believed that it first
grew in Southern India, Burma, and China.
Special
notes: It is largely used in the
culinary industry as garnishes, iced or
hot tea , cookies, puddings, icing, preserves, pharmaceuticals, and most
importantly lemonade.
