Pruning and caring for your potted lemon tree
Pruning the lemon tree is an important step to ensure good fruiting and prevent the tree from becoming too bulky.
Here are some tips to properly prune your lemon tree:
- Prune dead, damaged or diseased branches throughout the year,
- At the end of winter, prune branches that cross or grow into the tree,
- Remove the shoots that grow at the base of the trunk,
- Ventilate the foliage by thinning overly dense branches.
In addition to pruning, remember to regularly check the health of your lemon tree. Treat it with a natural insecticide in case of infestation with aphids, scale insects or other pests.
You can also spray soapy water on the leaves to kill pests.
