Without a greenhouse you won’t be able to grow any of these varieties in Scotland. It’s way too wet. Citrus aren’t merely hurt by low temps. In fact, it’s the combination for low temps with wet conditions that hurt them more. I’m in a zone 9 in the United States that’s usually an excellent zone for citrus. However, I’m a Pacific coast climate north or San Francisco and the lengthy rainy season (cloudy 80% of the days for 4 months makes citrus more difficult to grow than in colder sunnier climates). The one up side for you is that Scotland is relatively mild for the latitude so with a greenhouse you can grow all the cultivates this dude is growing.

I put a PVC hoophouse over all of it, with a few strands of incandescent Christmas lights inside, and a black water barrel toward the middle as a backup. Survived last winter's 18° nights, and never dropped a leaf. We even got our first lemon a few weeks ago. They are so delicious! Looking forward to fruits off the other two. I also put a few citrus seedlings and pineapple plants under there to see if they'll all survive. Fingers crossed!

The lemon and lime trees did take some damage, lost about half their leaves and the lemon tree bloomed but dropped the buds. That was just one night in those temps and we brought everything into the house the next morning because we were not getting any warm ups at all. Maybe if my trees were a bit larger they might not have had that damage but mine are only about 18 inches tall.
