Product description
Our Citrus Trio is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a new selection of plants for your home or office. These beautiful plants will add a touch of brightness all year long with their glossy green foliage, and will boast soft, white flowers from spring until summer. Flowers will be followed by juicy, colourful citrus fruits throughout the summer months.
In order for your plants to yield fruit, it’s important to take good care of them. The lime and lemon trees will thrive best with daily misting, and fertilising every 2-3 weeks, whereas the orange tree will prefer weekly watering. During warmer spells of weather, your trees can be moved outside to the patio.

Depending on seasonality, deciduous plants may be supplied in their dormant state and without leaves. Plants may also be pruned back, lower than stated heights, to encourage new growth.

House Plant Size Guide
House plants come in a wide array of shapes and sizes depending on the variety and maturity of the plant.
6cm/12cm/15cm/19cm/23cm nursery pots are the most common size of pot that they are sold in. This measurement is the diameter at the top of the pot.
12cm potted plants are the most popular providing great value for money and an instant impact. Larger plants that come in pots of 20cm+ are great for making a statement in any room and can represent years of growth to get to that level of maturity and size.

Top Tip
Feed your citrus plant with a specialist citrus fertiliser every two weeks during the growing season to encourage healthy foliage and fruit development. Position the plant in a sheltered location with good airflow to reduce the risk of pests and diseases. For potted plants, rotate them regularly to ensure even exposure to sunlight and prevent uneven growth.
How to Water
Water citrus plants deeply and consistently, allowing the top 5 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. During the growing season, they may require more frequent watering, but reduce this during winter when growth slows. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot or planting area has excellent drainage. Use rainwater where possible, as tap water may affect soil pH over time.
How to Plant
To plant citrus, select a sunny spot with well-draining soil that is slightly acidic (pH 5.5–6.5). Use a large pot with drainage holes if growing indoors, or dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball if planting outside. Place the citrus plant so the top of the root ball sits level with the soil surface, then backfill with a mix of garden soil and organic compost. Firm the soil gently, water thoroughly, and add a layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds, ensuring it does not touch the trunk.
