The Key Lime trees I planted from seed last spring are doing good. I pruned 4 inches or so off the top so they would start to branch instead of just growing straight up. Here's the new growth on one of them.

Citrus Trees
My Meyer Lemon tree decided to blossom once fall came and it was getting only about 12-13 hours of sun. It smells wonderful. I'm hoping to get them to make it to maturity instead of falling off part way through this time. We don't have citrus fertilizer way up here in the frozen north, so I'm doing the best I can with Miracid and an indoor houseplant ferilizer.

You know what citrus trees are good for? PIE!!!
You might look online if you are in need of specialized fertilizer. I haven't shopped around yet, but I know amazon has pretty much everything you could ever want to buy, gardening stuff included. Your trees look great.
My little lime trees are only 1 inch high. They want to grow up to be like yours.
Wait a minute Tim, not everything is good in a pie.
Also, I love your trees Tracie. Don't worry, I won't let Tim eat your trees.
I think I need some fertilizer for my citrus twig too
