Lemons everywhere.

Recently we went to visit our cousin's place.
He has a huge yard and has grown a lemon tree which was full of lemons. Several lemons were scattered on the ground. His wife said that they usually donate the extra lemons to the neighbors.
When we were returning they gave us lots of lemons.
Now after coming home I am thinking of growing it at home but not sure if it would grow in a pot as I dont have a yard.
Can anyone guide me?
Picture of their lemon tree.

they dont really like pots - they prefer the ground, I think the roots get too hot.I had one in a pot that never had a single lemon lol

I think it is possible if you have a huge pot.

@sjvg1976 I hope you can do it. I am also going to check if it is possible so I can plant it here.

You can plant it on a big mud tub and use some stones on the surface mud so that the lemon tree remains a bonsai. I think they will bear fruits.

@sjvg1976 If you are talking of bonsai lemon plant, then no. I have the full grown lemon tree in my garden but my peepal tree was a bonsai which I accidentally placed on muddy spot in my garden and the root grew through the hole of the pot and grew into a large tree.

@DevMrSamEleazar hmm that's a problem when the tree is outside the house. People will always disturb you.

It may grow on a pot but its space to grown bigger or taller is limited.
