Hi everyone, My hubby and son bought me a meyers lemon and meiwa kumquat tree for Mother's day. I am new to this and I would appreciate any advice Very Happy The lemon tree has 3 small green fruits on it and about 5 tiny baby fruits...It's in a 1 gallon container (which it came in). The meiwa has no fruit and is in the 3 gallon container it came in.

When should I be watering it? should I put them in bigger containers? Fertilizer? etc...

Kumquat


Lemon






(I live in Panama City, FL)

There are a lot of experienced folks who can tell you more than I can, but read, read, and read some more.

water only when dry, if theyre on concrete theyll need water more frequently than if theyre on grass.

If they are root bound, id repot. gently ease them up out of the container and check.

good luck!
