They are very easy to care for. I have a Eureka and a Meyer. Meyer's are also very easy to care for, a little more cold tolerant, and VERY prolific. Fruit holds well to a point (and then can be a little off-tasting to some). My Eureka will drop the fruit when it's ripe. My Meyer has a more rounded, lower growth habit, but is about 8 to 10' tall. My Eureka was resurrected from the dead, but they tend to be a bit more upright, and will send up these vigorous, upright water sprouts. They also bear just about all the time, and are also pretty prolific. Meyers don't so much tend to do that. The Meyer lemon is sweeter and about twice as juicy as a Eureka. Eurekas have a more classic lemon taste. I happen to love my Meyer lemons and make the most delicious lemonade from them.

My Meyer's is MUCH more dwarf, the Eureka is MUCH more taller growing. I love them both. Meyer's is a sweeter lemon and blooms more consistently throughout the year--Eureka is more a seasonal grower in my experience. Of the two, I think Meyer's a bit more temperamental as sometimes the Meyer's will sulk and go through some leaf yellowing but have not found this with Eurekas.
