Benefits & Description About Product:

A \"Jelly lemon plant\" refers to two different plants: the Jelly Bean Lemon Monkeyflower (Diplacus \'Jelly Bean Lemon\') and not a specific variety of Citrus limon but a generic term for bush lemon trees used to make jelly. The monkeyflower is an ornamental shrub known for its lemon-yellow, ruffled flowers and long bloom time, while the bush lemon is a citrus tree whose fruit is the primary ingredient in jelly recipes.
Jelly Bean Lemon Monkeyflower
Ornamental:This selection is primarily grown for its abundant, ruffled, lemon-yellow flowers that appear for a long period, making it a prized garden plant.
Characteristics:It features dark green, compact foliage and grows to about 1 to 2 feet in height and width.
Cultivation:The plant thrives in full sun to light shade with good drainage and can tolerate drought, though some summer water can prolong its flowering.
Wildlife:It is attractive to bees and hummingbirds and is considered deer-resistant.
Bush Lemon for Jelly
Fruit:The term \"jelly lemon\" is also used to describe the fruits from a bush lemon tree, a wild or less cultivated variety of citrus, which are often used to make lemon jelly or jam.
Uses:The fruit is typically boiled with sugar and water to create a preserved jelly, which can be stored for later use.
Traditional Name:These types of lemon trees are also referred to by their regional common names.
