Hi,
I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. I am so happy I found this site. It has so much useful information. Thank you, it has helped me solve several problems with my citrus trees and has answered many questions. I currently have 4 lemon trees from seed that are 5 years old. I requested a meyers lemon tree for my birthday and received a improved meyers and a Lisbon. This was after I purchased a meyers for myself as I didn't really think anyone in the family was listening:) this puts me up to 7 lemon trees. I will need to downsize on the lemons when I get around to adding other types of citrus to my collection.
Thank you for sharing
Paula

Welcome Paula,

If your Meyers bears like everyone says you'll have many lemons. I have two Meyers that have not flowered yet. I'm hoping they will next year. good luck with yours.

Thanks for the welcome. Both meyers are flowering and hopefully will bear some fruit this year. The Lisbon is also starting to flower. My 5 year old seedlings have yet to flower but all look very healthy. I've been creeping around on this site for a few weeks and decided to join as I really wanted to see the pictures. My husband is not looking forward to the fall when I have to find room in the house for 7 trees.

Hello B.C. citrus growers,
I'm having a hard time finding citrus trees, just wondering if anyone out there has trees or cuttings for grafting for sale. I have never grafted but am willing to give it a try. I have 4 lemon trees from seeds that I could use for grafting. I'm looking for grapefruit, any type of orange/tangerine/mandarin/satsuma and a lime. Hoping to put these all on one tree cuz I am limited for inside space. I think I have the citrus fever Smile

Thank you, Paula

Contact Tiny Tom's Tangerine Farm in North Delta, BC. Lots of citrus to choose from. He's going to teach me how to graft and help me make one or two multi-graft citrus trees.

Its great to find this site, but its even better to communicate with fellow crazy Canucks growing citrus in the Great White North.
