Scientific Name: Citrofortunella microcarpa
Growth: 2 feet, up to 6 feet if very happy with lots of sun
Light: Full sun
Watering: Water well and deeply when top 2 inches of soil is dry. Do not overwater. Ideally they like to be kept moist but not soggy
Pet Safe: No
Care: Intermediate. Can be moved outside for the summer but bring them back in before it gets cold as they can not withstand any frost.
Pests: Watch for scale. Citrus is very prone to it. Scale is a small insect that forms a little brown shell on the leaves and stems. You will know you have it if the leaves become glossy and sticky which is the honeydew residue from the insect. Scrap off the scale with your fingernail or for the squeamish, use a scouring pad and a little soap. Hose off in the shower, spray with Carly's FU bug spray and if it comes back change the soil completely.
