How to Grow and Care for Lemon-Lime Citrus Tree

[plant_requirements]

Planting

Plant your Lemon Lime Tree in a pot that is 12 to 14 inches in diameter. Use a basic, organic potting mix without any fertilizer added, place your tree, and water to settle the roots. Adding mulch or cedar shavings to the top of the soil helps retain the plant’s moisture.

Watering

Lemon-Lime Trees need plenty of water. To know when to water your tree, simply check the soil about 3 inches down. If the soil is dry here, it’s time to water your Lemon-Lime Tree.

Fertilizing

A citrus or avocado fertilizer will give the best results, such as the one included in ourCitrus Care Kit. Your leaves will tell you if you need to add certain fertilizers later. If your leaves are too yellow, the plant needs more nitrogen. If the leaves are yellow with green veins, then the Lemon-Lime Tree needs iron.

Pruning

There’s no need to prune your Lemon-Lime Tree. If you want to keep its shape, then you can prune as desired.

Pollination

Our trees are self-fertile, but you can pollinate by hand for your indoor trees. Simply take a bloomed flower and pluck it. Gently rub the center of the flower over the center of the other flowers. This will essentially do what bees will do for you outside in the summer!
