Hello. I need to change the side which is facing the sun of a lemon tree. All the leaves are facing now in the opposite direction of the sun. It stayed in the initial position for 1 year.
Will this hurt the tree or it is going to adapt?

covrig, it might be a bit surprised at first but it will adapt. I rotate my trees regularly to avoid that lopsided look.

It could lose some leaves in the process. How hard is it to move? Can you rotate it back and forth so the sunny side still gets some sun now and then?

I can't rotate it. That was the problem. I'll wait and see.
