I have a Lemon Tree that was planted from a seed about four years ago from a Florida Lemon that was about the size of an orange. It has always been very green and healthy but not had any blooms yet. It is in a container. This year, it has leaves turning yellow. I thought that it needed fertilized, so I did that. It is getting new leaves, but still has some yellowing. Please help. I so want this tree to finally bloom and give me lemons! Thanks for any help you can give.
It'll be all right as long as it's fed regularly with a fertilizer that contains micronutrients. One with an NPK ratio of 5-1-3 is recommended for containerized citrus. The juvenility period for a lemon seedling varies between 2-8 years depending on the source. Pruning will inhibit maturation.
