Grow an Indoor Lemon Tree + MORE Exotic Potted Citrus Trees
Tried growing a potted lemon tree but it didn’t thrive?
Citrus expert Byron Martin has the solution. And it’s not difficult.
AND he also has recommendations for other unusual potted citrus trees.
We talk about finger limes, blood limes, pomelo, sweet lemon, sunquat, kumquat, citron, and more.
For all of these citrus trees in pots, proper watering is the key to success. We hear how to water—and what to expect from potted citrus trees in the fall. (Spoiler alert: If your lemon tree drops leaves when you bring it indoors, you’re not alone!)
We also find out about Byron’s favourite rootstock for citrus grafting.
If you’re looking for more on indoor lemon trees, here’s a guide to growing a lemon tree in a pot (that actually fruits!)
