Variegated Pink Lemon (Citrus × limon 'Eureka Variegated Pink')

Does not ship to Florida.

A citrus lover’s dream, the Variegated Pink Lemon is both a conversation piece and a productive fruit tree. With its eye-catching green-and-cream striped leaves and lemons that blush with pink, this variety brings a tropical flair and zesty flavor to any garden or patio.

Key Features:

• Foliage: Elegant variegated leaves in shades of green and creamy white.

• Fruit: Medium-sized lemons with striped rinds when young and rosy-pink flesh inside. As the fruit matures, the rind turns yellow with green striping.

• Blooms: Aromatic white flowers tinged with purple, blooming mostly in spring and sometimes again in fall.

• Height & Spread: Typically grows 10–15 feet tall and wide in the ground, but can be pruned or container-grown to stay smaller.

Growing Conditions:

• USDA Zones: 9–11

  • Best suited for warm, frost-free climates like coastal California, parts of the Southwest, and Florida.

• Sunlight: Full sun (6–8+ hours per day).

• Soil: Well-draining, slightly acidic soil is ideal.

Cold Climate Growing Tips:

Gardeners in cooler zones (8 and below) can still grow this beauty with the right care:

• Container Friendly: Grows beautifully in pots, making it perfect for patios, balconies, or sunrooms.

• Overwintering: Bring indoors when temperatures drop below 40–45°F (4–7°C). Place near a sunny window or use a grow light.

• Mobility Tip: Use a wheeled plant caddy for easy movement between indoors and outdoors.

Uses & Benefits:

• Culinary Uses: The pink-fleshed lemons are tart and flavorful, great for lemonade, garnishes, baked goods, or preserving.

• Ornamental Value: Its striking foliage and striped fruit make it as much a decorative plant as a productive one.

• Pollinator-Friendly: Fragrant blossoms attract bees and other helpful garden visitors.
