4 foolproof tips to keep your lemons fresh

  • After chopping your lemon, pick out the most beautiful seeds.
  • Clean them gently before placing them in slightly damp potting soil.
  • Cover the container with plastic wrap or a transparent bag to create a little greenhouse and keep the humidity in.
  • Place your plant near a very bright window (at least 8 hours of sunlight every day).
  • When the first shoots emerge, remove the cover and water lightly.

There’s no need to be a gardening expert! With a little care and plenty of sunshine, you’ll soon be able to enjoy a lovely, fragrant shrub… and, who knows, maybe even your own lemons.
