Lemons could withstand night temperatures like that, but anything cooler and I run the risk of losing them.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure what the heck I&#8217;m going to actually DO with them, however. I can&#8217;t plant them outside because the winters in Virginia are too cool for them. \u00a0I&#8217;m thinking of buying some gigantic pots and growing them in my office as trees. The Victorians grew lemon trees inside glass greenhouses; maybe I could turn my office into a mini conservatory?<\/p>\n<p>It might get a little messy, but the cats would love it. Just think of the possibilities. Instant cat trees!<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, we&#8217;re a long way away from that decision. For now, my little lemon trees are about 4 to 5 inches tall and on an East-facing windowsill in my warm, snug plant room next to the cactus.<\/p>\n<h2>Update&#8230;The Lemon Tree, July 2015<\/h2>\n<p>I moved both lemon trees outside for the summer, but one died. The second lemon tree survived and is thriving. It&#8217;s now almost a foot tall and has plenty of healthy, glossy leaves. So far, so good. Here&#8217;s a picture of the tree, basking in the sun on my front porch. Whether it lives through the winter indoors again remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4128\" style=\"width: 476px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homegardenjoy.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lemon-tree-July-2015.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4128\" class=\"wp-image-4128 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/homegardenjoy.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lemon-tree-July-2015.jpg\" alt=\"lemon tree July 2015\" width=\"466\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homegardenjoy.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lemon-tree-July-2015.jpg 466w, https:\/\/homegardenjoy.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lemon-tree-July-2015-262x300.jpg 262w, https:\/\/homegardenjoy.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lemon-tree-July-2015-150x172.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 466px) 100vw, 466px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4128\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lemon tree grown from a seed, July 2015<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few months ago, I decided to save some seeds from a grocery story lemon and see if I could grow them into lemon trees.
