#ProPlantTips for Care:

Citrus trees do their absolute best in the full sun. Not much else will do without losing out on the number of blooms, the size of your harvest, or the health of your tree. Provide an enriched, well-drained site with plenty of organic matter in the soil.

Low water needs once established
Not particular on soil type but prefers slightly acidic soil
Provide a regular fertilizer regiment
