It will develop a sweet flavor without a lot of heat. The tree is vigorous and upright in growth. It prefers full sun, fertile, but well drained soil, and moderate water. Don't go through another growing season without one of your own! You can grow citrus trees in almost any type of pot, but ceramic or clay is usually recommended; good drainage is essential.
