Lemons are bright yellow fruits that grow on small, pretty trees with shiny green leaves and sweet-smelling white flowers. They have a very sour taste that might make your face pucker up and your eyes squint! Lemons originally came from Asia and traveled all around the world.
A lemon tree can grow fruit all year round, and some lemon trees can produce over 600 lemons in a single year! Lemon trees have beautiful white flowers that smell wonderful. They love warm, sunny weather and can grow in gardens and even in pots.
Lemons are packed with Vitamin C to help keep your body strong and healthy. Even though lemons are too sour to eat like a regular fruit, they are super useful in the kitchen. When you mix lemon juice with water and sugar, you get delicious lemonade!
