When Do Citrus Trees Bloom and Product Fruit?

Nature Hills Citrus Trees

Enjoy the fabulous fresh scent of the beautiful white Citrus flowers in springtime. You'll enjoy watching the hanging orbs color up over the summertime.

Citrus ripens mostly in the fall and winter, and most are harvested from October through March. Farmer lore says that after you harvest the last apple, you'll start harvesting the fruit from sub-tropical, evergreen Citrus trees.

Citrus trees have perfect, self-pollinating flowers. However, you'll have a bigger harvest with a second tree nearby.

Give indoor plants a gentle breeze from a fan on low setting during blooming. These wind-pollinated plants appreciate good air circulation.

You can also give Mother Nature a helping hand by using a dry paintbrush to gently swirl around the yellow pollen, and then daub it on the other blossoms. Do this daily without rinsing off your brush during bloom season.

Make the Most of Your Homegrown Citrus Harvest

Citrus are small to moderate-sized trees. Citrus trees bear fruit with a tough rind, known as the zest. The fruit is bold and colorful, and the flowers are bright white, delicate and fragrant.

Juice-laden Citrus fruits can be eaten fresh off the tree, squeezed for fresh juice and added to cocktail drinks. Zest the rind for desserts and savory dishes. Use the rind dried in scented potpourri or even preserved in marmalades or stored in oil.

The Home Garden is Ideal for a Citrus Tree

 

Citrus plays a dual role as a wonderful fresh fruit for culinary delights and a beautiful evergreen landscape plant. Give these carefree plants a sunny spot with well-drained soil.

Grown in the ground in mild climates, citrus works as a specimen tree, a screen tree or a perfect edible hedge. It's good to know that Citrus can be maintained to any height with regular pruning during the dormant season.

How to Grow Citrus Plants in Containers

Citrus is an important addition to any fruit-growers collection. Only a few varieties of Citrus trees tolerate freezing temperatures, and most should be protected from the cold.

For container culture, choose a pot with good drainage holes. Use a high-quality Citrus potting mix that is slightly acidic and a well-draining soil.

In USDA hardiness zones 3 through 7, you can typically enjoy your patio Citrus tree outside in the spring, summer, and early fall. Give them bright, direct sunlight, great drainage, and protection from high winds.

In late fall, move your Citrus plant to a protected location indoors. Let it stay there for the winter. When you bring Citrus trees inside, put them in the sunniest window you have.

Plenty of sunshine is key to enjoying a Citrus tree indoors. Keep your Citrus tree in front of a window or give it a boost with supplemental lighting. Many like to supplement the light indoors in winter with a LED plant light.

Citrus prefers to be grown on the dry side, so be very careful not to over-water these plants indoors. Be sure to allow the soil to dry out a bit between watering.

Increase the humidity in winter by misting the plants or using a humidifier to combat dry air indoors. Create a humid environment around your Citrus tree’s indoor winter growing area.

How to Prune Citrus Trees

Have a small yard? Use high-density planting or try a time-tested pruning technique called espalier.

The long-lived Citrus tree makes a wonderful, espaliered plant against a flat wall or heavy-duty trellis structure. Lemons trees look great grown vertically as a popular treatment.

Enjoy the dark green foliage contrasted with bright yellow lemons just waiting to be harvested. Oranges, Mandarins and all other types of Citrus make great candidates for espaliers, too.

When to Prune Citrus and Orange Trees in High-Density Hedgerows or Three-in-One Plantings

Citrus in pots should be pruned before it really starts to wake up again for the new growing season. Try to keep the lower side shoots on the plants, as these are often the most productive limbs.

Tip prune the very ends off of the tall, vertical whips. Doing this will encourage that beneficial, bushy growth for more luscious fruit.

You can reduce the length of long branches, as well. This will encourage a more compact plant.
