Description: Citrus jambhiri, commonly known as Rough Lemon or Jambhiri, is a small to medium-sized evergreen tree belonging to the Rutaceae family. Native to India, it has spread to various tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. The tree can grow up to 20-30 feet (6-9 meters) tall and features thorny branches with glossy, dark green leaves. The fruits are oval to ellipsoid, with a rough, bumpy, yellow to green rind and acidic, juicy, pale yellow pulp. Rough Lemon is valued for its culinary uses, particularly for making pickles, preserves, and beverages. It is also used for its essential oil, which has various applications in aromatherapy and flavorings. This hardy and drought-tolerant citrus tree thrives in well-draining, sandy-loam soil and requires full sun for optimal fruiting. Due to its tolerance to challenging conditions and the versatility of its fruits, Citrus jambhiri is a popular choice for home gardens, orchards, and landscaping projects in warm climates. Zones 10-11 Germination Citrus jambhiri, also known as rough lemon or Jambhiri, follows a specific process for successful seed germination. Prepare a well-draining seed starting mix, such as a blend of peat moss and perlite, and sow the seeds at a depth of about 1/2 inch in individual containers or seed trays. Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged to prevent seed rot. Place the containers in a warm, well-lit location, maintaining temperatures around 70-80°F (21-27°C) to encourage germination, which typically occurs within 2-6 weeks. Once the seedlings emerge, provide them with ample sunlight or artificial light for at least 12 hours daily to foster healthy growth. Transplant the seedlings into larger pots or outdoors once they've developed several sets of true leaves. By diligently following these steps, successful germination and robust growth of Citrus jambhiri seeds can be achieved.
