The Lemon (Hindi name – Nimboo) is a small evergreen tree of about 11 feet high, the bark varying in colour from clear grey on the trunk, green on the younger branches to a purplish colour on the twigs. The trees have thorns and fruit that turn from green to yellow on ripening. On a lemon tree, flowers and ripe fruits can be found at the same time.

The oval fruit is famous is used widely for its juice. The pulp and rind are also used, primarily in cooking and baking. Lemon juice is acidic in nature and makes it a cheap, readily available acid for use in educational science experiments. When ripe, they have a bright yellow nose, a layer of pith underneath and a paler yellow segmented interior. Lemons contain unique flavonoid compounds that have antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. Limonins found in lemons are reported to be anti-carcinogens.

This helps to prolong the usage of the fruit. In India, the lemon is used in Indian traditional medicines Siddha Medicine and Ayurveda.
