: : I have just received a miniature valencia orange tree. A patio plant I was told. It is full of flowers and wonderfully fragrant. I have no idea how to take care of it. I am an experienced gardener but any information would be wextremely helpful. Thank you
A BELL: Sorry we are yankees and do not have orange trees in Ohio. Generally, keep it watered and fertilized with a slow release fertilizer like Osmocote 13-13-13 or similar. Spray periodically for aphids and scale. MVG Plant Dr.
I just got a miniature orange tree, and the guy at the greenhouse told me it likes lots of sun a good south window would do and to keep it moist.
