Citrus Lime Tree 45-55cm - 20 cm Pot - Unwrapped
Citrus Trees will thrive in most UK gardens given a warm sunny position. In the UK they are probably best grown in a large pot or other suitable container as this will allow them to be moved as conditions dictate. Your citrus tree can be left outside on a patio over summer but during all other seasons, move to a warmer, frost-free location with good light levels - we would recommend a conservatory or a greenhouse. Citrus Trees will not tolerate wet conditions or waterlogging for any length of time. Waterlogging will usually result in the loss of the plant. For this reason, they should be grown in very free-draining soil or compost. Citrus are hungry plants and need regular feeding. Use high nitrogen Citrus summer feed from late March to October. In winter switch to winter feed that is specific to Citrus. This Lime Tree stands approximately 45-55cm, including the pot.
We will always pick the best plant on our nursery for you, however, please note that fruit on your citrus plant is not guaranteed, as this will be dependent on the time of year - with fruits being produced normally from beginning of autumn for most varieties. Plants ordered later in the season are more likely to drop their fruits in transit or may be despatched without fruit if they have finished producing. With correct feeding and care they will continue to fruit with the next cycle.
