Autumn is a fantastic time to plant a new citrus tree, as the soil is still warm enough to encourage root growth and the tree can start to establish before the cool winter weather arrives. There’s nothing like picking your very own citrus fruit like sweet mandarins, tangy lemons and juicy oranges and dwarf varieties of citrus trees mean they can be grown in small spaces
Instructions
- Find a warm sunny spot in the garden with well-drained soil.
- Dig the planting hole twice as wide and to the same depth as the tree’s root ball.
- Mix some Yates Dynamic Lifter Organic Plant Food into the soil.
- Position the citrus tree in the hole, backfill with soil and water well.
