Will my lemon tree come back?

I wasn’t able to cover my Lisbon lemon tree for the snow storm but put one pipe warmer and 2 halogen spot lights on it around the trunk area. All the leaves fell off except a few at the base by the trunk. Think it will come back?

Probably just have to leave it alone and see for a few more months. Lemons seem to be a bit finicky for me. I covered mine with zipper bags from Amazon with Christmas lights under and luckily they haven't dropped leaves and are looking better. Good luck.

Probably some branches and branch ends will die, but it will probably be okay.. one caution is to not let anything sprout where it is grafted….that will be a thorny mess.

If it sprouts only below the graft, that’s no good. If above, I’d find a way to pot it this season if practical so that you can bring it in the next time you get a hard freeze. True lemons are the most cold sensitive citrus there are.

Yes Prune it. Get the dead limbs off.

False. Limes are the most cold sensitive with key limes being the worst. True lemons are up there, though.
