Lemon Cypress || Evergreen Tree || Citrus Fragrance Tree || Outdoor Plant UAE & KSA

The Lemon Cypress Tree is a stunning evergreen plant known for its refreshing citrus fragrance and bright yellow-green foliage. A favorite among garden enthusiasts, this tree adds charm and elegance to both indoor and outdoor spaces. Its soft, needle-like leaves release a lemon-scented aroma when touched, acting as a natural air freshener for your home or garden.

The Lemon Cypress thrives in full sunlight to partial shade and requires well-draining soil for healthy growth. It is drought-tolerant once established, making it a perfect low-maintenance option for UAE gardens. Whether grown in pots, as a decorative tabletop plant, or shaped into hedges for landscaping, this versatile tree enhances the beauty of any space.

Pair it beautifully with Lavender, Rosemary, or Boxwood for an aesthetically pleasing display. Indoors, place it near a sunny window to maintain its vibrant color, and mist occasionally to prevent drying. Outdoors, plant in a wind-protected area and trim lightly to maintain shape.
