Fresh Citrus Scent for Gardens & Containers

This beautifully fragrant plant is prized for its crisp lemon aroma and attractive foliage, making it a favorite for patios, herb gardens, and sunny indoor spaces. Grown primarily for its scented leaves, it adds sensory interest to gardens while also serving practical uses in potpourri, sachets, and natural home fragrances. When brushed or lightly crushed, the foliage releases a clean, uplifting citrus scent.

With an upright, bushy growth habit, this variety performs exceptionally well in containers and decorative planters. It thrives in bright light and well-draining soil, requiring minimal care once established. While grown mainly for its foliage, it may produce small, delicate blooms under the right conditions, adding subtle ornamental charm.
