The varieties of citrus I want to grow outnumber the spots I have available for planting. Luckily, citrus grows very well in containers. Through the years I’ve learned what works, and what doesn’t. Learn how to grow citrus in containers with these tips, and in no time you will be a container citrus growing pro!
The list of reasons to grow citrus in containers is long:
• Limited space for all the different varieties you would like to grow.
• Unfavorable weather conditions makes growing citrus outside year-round difficult.
• Poor soil and drainage issues prevent planting in the ground.
• Proximity to garden beds. Growing citrus in containers keeps the citrus roots out of your raised beds and garden.
