lemon tree

Question

I had a lemon tree and it died and I cut it down. Left a stump from the trunk with green sprout growing from it. I have watered it until it is about 5′ tall and real bushy and green. Will it ever produce lemons?

Answer 1

It has likely grown from the grafted stock on the citrus. There is no way to know the type of citrus stock used, an it could likely be a lemon stock that may not be very flavorful.

There is no way to know until is does produce if it is an edible fruit.
