Interesting Facts: Citrus is derived from Greek kedromelon "apple of cedar" (Greek melon is cognate to Latin malum "apple"); this name, however, did not signify lemon, but citron, whose cultivation in Egypt is reported by Greek travellers. The Romans, then, shortened the Greek name to citrus. The name "lemon" and limonum is derived from the Arabic Limun or Limu, which in its turn probably comes from the Sanskrit Nimbuka.

Citrus limonum is thought native to central Asia, especially northern India, and Iran. The lemon trees reached Europe by way of Iran and were grown first in Greece and then in Italy in the 2nd century. Medieval or even older sources referring to lemons always mean the very aromatic, but juice-free citron. Today, lemons are cultivated in many tropic or sub-tropic countries. The USA and Mexico are the main lemon producers. In Europe, most lemons actually stem from Spain or Italy. It takes about 675 to 1,400 lemons to produce 1/2 kilo of oil, depending on the time of harvest.
