Lemon tree

A lemon tree sapling.

Q: Can you give me advice on lemon trees witch I have grown from seed from Greece from a pure lemon 10 yrs ago. They are 5ft tall but never flower.

A: Plants grown from seed will rarely grow true; apples, pears and in your case lemon, even produce a tree that will come to flower and therefore into fruit.  However, your lemon tree is still young, it can take 10-15 years from seed to become a fruiting tree.  If you want to feed it give it ericaceous feed then wait and be patient. Enjoy the tree.
