I have a success to report!
I posted last month about the Eureka lemon tree I was attempting to nurse back to health. I’ve been keeping it well fed with Dynamic Lifter for citrus and resisting the urge to over water.
It is sitting on the back deck, which gets full sun in summer, but at the moment it’s getting about 4-5 hours a day.
It has greened up nicely and there are flowers!
Now I just need to keep my fingers crossed that they don’t fall off.
Hooray!! Fingers crossed the flowers turn into baby lemons.
I think you are only supposed to feed in spring and summer. Fertilizer doesn’t melt (?activate?) when it is cold. Doesn’t seem to have done any harm though.
Oops! I think it needed it though…
Congratulations. It is great when you have success in the garden, my lemon tree died.
My mandarin looks like it is turning up it’s toes too
if mine grows mandarins I’ll give you some in exchange for some lemons. Haha
Nice going L. It just goes to show where a bit of determination can get you =)
Thanks 🙂 I’m pretty chuffed.
