Planting

When planting your new citrus tree, it's important to choose a warm, sunny spot with protection from cool winds. If you prefer planting in a container, plant directly into Kings Container Mix, as this high quality mix will keep the soil moist, and has plenty of nutrients to keep your citrus growing well. When planting directly into the ground, ensure the soil is well-draining and rich in organic matter. To give your soil an extra boost of nutrients, mix in Kings Compost and Kings Sheep Pellets.

Care

Watering your citrus tree is so important, especially in the first year after planting. Be sure to give your tree a deep, slow soak, allowing the water to reach the roots. In spring and autumn, feed with Kings Citrus & Fruit Tree Fertiliser. To encourage root growth and improve microbial activity in the soil, feed monthly with Aquaticus Organic Garden Booster from spring through autumn.

Mulching with Living Earth More than Mulch will help with moisture retention and keep weeds at bay.
