Not all plants are doing great. I seem to have some issue with everything grafted on poncirus. That includes all those expensive plants from Agrumes Bachès. Sooner or later they all develop an unhealthy looking leave color (yellowish/brownish green) and stop growing... _________________ - Marc |

Try replanting them with fresh soil. Also watch the PH. _________________ Wal-Mart a great place to buy cheap plastic crap ! http://walmartwatch.com/ ...

I already did change the soil but it doesn't seem to make a difference. The pH may be an issue.
Anyway, I decided to not bother to much anymore, as all other citruses are doing just fine. So if any plant gives up I may just get a new one and make sure it's not grafted on poncirus. _________________ - Marc |

Poncirus like a slightly acidic soil... _________________ Wal-Mart a great place to buy cheap plastic crap ! http://walmartwatch.com/ ...

Poncirus grafted trees grow very slowly at first. Maybe they need some time to start. _________________ i am in love with lemon |

They have been growing nicely, but at some point things turn bad. We'll see if they recover or not. Otherwise they'll be thrown out! _________________ - Marc |

My Washington Sanguine orange has a couple of huge leaves too, but generally speaking, all citrus grown in shade will produce larger leaves in response to the lack of light. This is their natural behavior allowing for more sunlight to be captured... I simply love those golden hues on your Sfusato lemons! |

i did not know that, but it reminded me on my tarocco which has few very large leaves below canopy in shade. _________________ i am in love with lemon |
