Sorry, I meant on the Island. I have all your lemons in Zagreb, but they are still to small to plant them in the ground. Maybe, i plant Sicily lemon next year. I am going to take photos of them one of this days.

You can propagate lemons by cuts easily .. so you could have one in Zagreb and one on the island.
Same about the lunario you have already. |

Yes, but meant the Sicilian Lemon, it tends to grow bushy, so you can take away side branches.
The seedlings are PrimoFiore. |

Lemon from seed in my experience is 4-5 years, sometimes 7.

Sicilian lemon is having hard times adapting to new internal conditions. only few leaves left on it, after i took it inside. I hope it recovers in spring. I do not know why is this so, because it has enough light and no heating in the room. the temperature never drops below 10 c. It is not just this lemon. One meyer and orange also lost most of its leaves. Only one red blush grapefruit is doing great. They are placed in the building stairway watching south. I noticed leaves don,t like being sprayed with water, when placed inside.

You have more sunlight during winter, than we have here, so conditions are a bit different, but in my country, the best temperature during short winter days for citrus plants is from 0 to 10 degrees of Celsius |

There is a balance of light and themperatures citrus needs.
I guess it is too dark andf too hot at your place.
Give them themperatures of 0 ° - 8 ° C and it will be in dormant and need not much water.
At all it must be ALWAYS UNDER 12 ° C, otherwise it needs really MUCH light. |

Hershell, sorry I can no longer help you out with an Ugli. I did not care much for the fruit's taste. The tree has gone to stay with its cousins. - Millet |
