Depending on variety the tartness could vary. They contain a pleasant aroma, which is normally referred to as a lemony aroma.
Lemons are considered as a good source of vitamin C which helps in preventing health disorders. Daily consumption of lemon juice aids in weight loss too.

and disease prevention practices, a vigorous tree can live over 100 years.
