Citrus x limon ‘Villa Franca’
Lemon
This almost thornless cultivar produces juicy, highly-sour fruit with very few seeds. As a true lemon, it has a more sour taste than hybrid lemons. The fruit ripens in the winter season, providing a delicious flavor during the colder months. Citrus x limon ‘Villa Franca’ features scented white flowers that bloom throughout the summer season, and it is self-fertile, meaning that it does not require additional pollination from other trees to produce fruit. Citrus x limon is evergreen and native to Asia, primarily Northeast India (Assam), Northern Myanmar, and China. Learn more about Citrus x limon. Citrus x limon ‘Villa Franca’ is said to have originated in Sicily and was then introduced into Florida, United States by H. S. Sandford about 1875 and later into California, United States.
