![]() I have (and still do) keep it inside at all times and, for the most part, away from any significant wind from windows. However, the tree has never been outside. I live in Michigan and as many know, there is hardly any sun in the winter here and we have just gotten started with warm (borderline hot) temperatures around 75-90 degrees in the day and 50-60 at night. It's now probably a little over a foot tall. I haven't pruned because I was unsure how to do that but also because it wasn't needed (originally, there were leaves on every branch). I scratched off a little stem near the base of the plant and it is green which I understand is a good sign. I've read quite a few other answers on this site and I still am nervous about mine since it seems much smaller and younger than others'. Just recently, the final leaves went yellow and fell off and as of today there are no leaves left on the tree, just one growing lemon and some branches. ![]() The tree had started to grow bark and the leaves that were still there were growing larger. The only thing I didn't do was fertilize since I have been waiting for my shipment to arrive that keeps getting held up (and it has been winter).Įvery once in a while a leaf would turn yellow and drop off, but nothing worse than that. The pot has holes in the bottom and any time there was water dripping out I removed that water. I misted the leaves every day to make sure they didn't dry out. Everything was going good I made sure to let it dry out a couple inches before watering again. It flowered in about a month and started producing multiple fruits, of which only one is still growing. It came with many leaves (some died at first but from what I've read that's pretty normal). It was a cutting that was planted into a pot by a nursery on Amazon, then shipped to my parents and then I potted it in the pot pictured. I received a Meyer lemon tree for my birthday in Nov (2020). ![]() First time posting on this website so let me know if I'm doing something wrong. ![]()
