Can you grow lemons in Zone 7?
USDA zone 7 may dip down as low as 10 to 0 degrees F. (-12 to -18 C.). Citrus doesn’t tolerate such temperatures, even the hardiest citrus tree varieties. First, make sure you have plenty of air circulation in your home. If you live in an area with a lot of wind, you may want to consider installing an air conditioner.
This will help keep the temperature of your house from dropping too low. You can also use a fan to help circulate the air around the house. The fan will also help cool down the room you are in, so you don’t have to worry about your room getting too hot in the middle of the night.
