Your growing zone is crucial to this answer. Everyone's answers are for their own zones. Someone in Florida, for instance, may have triple the growth than someone located North.

They grow a couple feet a year. My previous tree reached 15 feet in 6 1/2 years. The plant I ordered here has grown about a foot in 5 months.

Hello! I bought one awhile back and it seems to be a medium fast grower...not slow, but not fast either... Its definitely worth waiting for. They are BEAUTIFUL! ENJOY:-)

I don't think it matters. This is a very robust plant and grows extremely fast. Don't plant it anywhere that you can't control, i.e. around trees because it will completely take over the tree!

It was about 2 1/2 feet tall minus roots. I followed your directions to a tee. Yet the tree never grew :-(

Not sure but I was very happy with how it grew. Planted about 2 months ago and I have a thick lush area where I planted, about 100sq ft of bare land.

Hey Bruce, I bought one of these a year and a half ago. I still have it potted in the house and it is growing strong!The tree was nicely packed and the roots were in a small plastic container with a little water in it.

I gave this to my daughter for our old silver tree. I did see it rotate and it was not moving fast but at a slow steady pace. Sorry that is the best I can tell you.

This tree was a gift for my daughter, who received it this December (2012). The tree arrived at around 2 1/2 feet tall and is now around 3 feet tall with small fruit on it, with no partner plant. Hope this answers your question ...sorry...I don 't have much of a green thumb myself!

I got it last year and it was about 2 feet tall with 2 branches. It has not fruited yet but has grown and looks very healthy. I often don't take very good care of my plants and it seems to be thriving in spite of me. Can't beat the price

I brought mine in and it grew to 8 ft. tall. Because of the broad leaves it drinks a lot of water and you have to monitor it constantly if it is in a pot and it will dry out faster if it is outdoors in a pot. It was a fairly happy plant indoors this winter even with a northern exposure. I took some cuttings and rooted them last month. Washington DC area.

My tree arrived at about 4 feet tall in April. After the summer growing season it's about 5 1/2 feet tall now at the tip. It's easy to prune if you need to trim it back, and from what the grower said it will actually respond well to occasional pruning. "The pruning actually triggers the tree to develop new growth which is healthy for the tree in the long term."

It was pretty little when it arrived, about a year ago. Maybe a foot tall? It has now made its way five feet up the arbor, and is very full ... I have a feeling it will double in size this summer. I suspect its strength was in its root stock, not in the size of what was above the ground

It was less than a foot when planted. It has has been in the ground a year and a half now and is almost five feet tall and doing great.

There are 5 trees. Additionally, they are NOT as tall as the picture shows. They are only about 3 ft tall.

It was about 3 inches tall from base of roots, 4-5 inches wide from end to end of leaves, and it was in good condition. It was a little droopy but once I watered it, it perked right up. After a week I planted it in bonsai pot with clay and it has grown a good inch already and is looking really healthy and happy.

When it gets older but it will not make it produce any faster. Lemon trees grown from seed take 4 to 6 years to produce fruit. The advantage of grafting would be a better root system. This would be noticeable only if planted in ground not potted. I hope this helps.Trace

The plant is about 6" tall. I really do not know the age, but I would say its a youngling.
