Citrus & Fruit Trees

A citrus tree can grow a calamondin orange or a pomegranate on a shelf. They do need more light than a houseplant but are worth the payoff. Citrus & fruit trees are toxic to cats and dogs per ASPCA. Manage the light and the rest is doable.

String of Turtles - Peperomia Prostrata
Jackie
Adorable

I received my string of turtle today, though I ordered a small one most of the leaves look healthy and happy I kind of wish it had a few more strands but I’m going to work hard to make sure it’s happy and healthy! For winter protection they wrapped it in cotton I’m super happy with all my plants so far!

Stromanthe Triostar – Colourful Indoor Houseplant
Mary Belanger
Breathtaking!

The Stromanthe Triostar was the last plant I unwrapped from my second order from mygreenscape.ca. I gasped when I saw this beautiful plant with its long leaves of dark and light pink and green. The underside of the leaves are deep pink. And it has some stripes, especially underneath. She is very healthy and has a few new leaves unfurling. All the plants were packaged up very well. Thanks so much!

ZZ Plant

My ZZ :-)

I'm so happy to have received this ZZ plant. Originally I ordered four plants, then after looking at my order I realized 2 of the same plant was in my cart. So I contacted Mygreenscape.ca and it was just in time as the shipment hadn't gone out yet. So I was advised I could pick another plant so that is how I became a plant parent for my ZZ :-) I'm grateful for the kindness I received -Thank you Imtiaz!
This is a very healthy plant. It's tall with interesting and shiny leaves. So nice to have this plant. Thanks Mygreenscape.ca
p.s. I want to purchase the ZZ Raven with my next order.

How to Care for a Citrus Tree

Citrus trees need 8-12 hours of bright direct light daily. A south-facing window is the minimum requirement indoors. North-facing condos will need a grow light to make up the difference.

When Your Citrus Tree Looks Off

Yellow leaves with green veins is nitrogen or iron deficiency. Feed with a citrus-specific fertilizer every 4 to 6 weeks during the growing season.

If it’s losing a large number of leaves, the most likely causes are insufficient light, overwatering, or cold drafts from a window or vent. Move it to a brighter spot.

Indoors, citrus trees need help with pollination because there are no insects. When the tree flowers, shake the branches gently or use a soft brush to move pollen between flowers. Trees getting less than 8 hours of light daily will also stop fruiting.

Scale insects look like small brown bumps fixed to the stems and undersides of leaves. Aphids cluster on new growth and leave a sticky residue. Spider mites show up as fine webbing in dry conditions. Treat all 3 with insecticidal soap or neem oil applied weekly for 3 to 4 weeks.

No. Citrus trees are listed as toxic to cats, dogs, and horses by ASPCA. The essential oils limonene and linalool, and a compound called psoralen found in the leaves, fruit, and skin, cause vomiting, diarrhea, drooling, and depression in both cats and dogs.

Yes, with the right light. A south-facing window or a grow light that delivers 8 to 12 hours of bright light daily is the main requirement. Calamondin oranges and key limes are the most reliable for fruiting indoors in Canadian conditions. 

Citrus trees need good light and a slight temperature drop in fall to trigger flowering. Keep the tree slightly cooler at night from September through November, around 12 to 15 degrees Celsius, and reduce watering a little during that period. Once it flowers, pollinate by hand since there are no insects indoors. A small paintbrush or a gentle shake of the branches works.

Every 7 to 10 days is good, but check the soil rather than following a schedule. Stick your finger 2 to 3 inches into the soil. If it is still damp, leave it. If it is dry, water thoroughly until it drains from the bottom. Winter overwatering is the most common reason indoor citrus trees decline and die.
