Born in Dessau, Müller made a living in the last two decades of the nineteenth century by selling lemons (in German Zitronen) on the Grasbrook during the day and at nights in the pubs of the Neustadt. Her famous call while she sold the lemons was Zitroon! Zitroon!. Due to drunkenness and mental illness, in August 1894 she was sent to the Friedrichsberg asylum.
A memorial to her is located on Ludwig-Erhardt-Straße near Saint Michaelis" Church.
lieutenant states in Low German: „Dien Leben wer suur/As de Zitronen, sall/sick dat Erinnern an/di lohnen? Dien Schik-/sol wiest op all de/Lüüd, for de dat Glück/het gor keen Tiet.“ "Your life was as sour as lemons. Shall remembrance on you would it be worth? Your destiny is pointing to all the people for whom happiness has no time." Already in 1900, a play named after her was performed in the Ernst-Drucker-, and other works were to follow.
