Meyer Lemon - Wintering in the garage

We freeze here in Portland, so can't leave the citrus trees out.
Last year the tree was much smaller and we kept it in the living room. It was warm, but not much light - it did OK.

This year we brought it into the garage. And although it is not heated much I rigged up some lights on a timer and gave it 12 hours a day.

Wow, the tree loved it and I thing may have doubled in size and the 5 lemons look great.
The 1st year Seville Orange, to the left, seemed to stay green and grow, as well.
