I highly recommend Meyer's lemon, which is quite precocious, has over
large tasty lemons, does quite well in a southern window in a dry house
in the winter. Depending on when your's flowers, you may have to hand
pollinate if it flowers when it's indoors. As with all container
citrus you need to keep an eye on brown scale which can get out of
control in an indoor space where the plants are not being sprayed
regularly. I've gotten mine from Michael McConkey's Edible Landscaping
(http://www.eat-it.com/) ...
