General Information
While you can expect your tree to bloom in the first few years, we recommend that you shape your tree by pruning to form a nice rounded tree, then allow the blooming process to start. This procedure gives you more bearing branches and therefore, more fruit in the long run.

Continue the above pruning process by allowing new shoots to grow out, harden, and then cut off the tips. After four to five prunings allow your tree to continue to grow without pruning. After several years, if your tree is getting too large, you can keep it pruned to a manageable size.

Fertilizer
We recommend a water soluable fertilizer with an analysis 20-20-20. This fertilizer should be put on your tree approxiamately every two weeks, and mixed according to the manufacturers recommendation.

Watering
It is very important that you do not keep your citrus tree too wet. We recommend allowing the soil to dry almost completely before watering. You should always water at the first sign of any stress on the plant, such as curved leaves. It is not recommended to allow the leaves to curl.
