Fertilize your new orange tree using a Vitamin B-1 rooting tonic once it has been potted. Thereafter, apply a slow-release fertilizer to the soil surface yearly in the spring, which will prevent any burning of the root system. Winterize your tree by ending fertilization after July. Fertilization after July promotes late, tender shoots that are susceptible to cold damage. The best location for growing an orange tree is with full sun, well-drained soil, and protection from strong winds. It prefers warm climates, so it should also be in an area that does not experience extremely cold temperatures. A spot that is sheltered from strong winds will also help to protect the tree from damage.Citrus plants are hungry plants and need regular feeding during the growing season (spring and summer). In this growing period it is best to feed the plants every second watering. They should be fed with a high potassium feed to produce good fruit. We advise Westland Citrus feed as it boosts fruit set.

To get your containerized orange tree off on the right footing, you need the correct potting soil mix and the correct size pot. While you can place the tree in a 5 gallon (19 L.) pot, bigger is better. A large container like a whiskey barrel or 20 gallon (76 L.) pot is ideal. Make sure it has drainage holes or drill some into it. The addition of some heavy-duty coaster or wheels is a good idea as well. This could mean your orange tree has too wet or dry soil, or is situated near a draught or in a too cold temperature. It could also mean it is not getting enough nutrients and not being fed enough.

Usage: Indoor use only. No drainage hole. These plant pots are not guaranteed 100% waterproof, use a waterproof liner to protect against moisture damage. Transfer them to individual pots (10-12 inches) or plant them on the ground if you have a garden. When the plant outgrows the old pot, repot it.

Dwarf Washington Navel: This variety is a great choice for small spaces, as it only grows to about 8 feet tall. It produces sweet, juicy oranges that are ideal for juicing and eating. If your orange tree fails to produce any flowers, this could be due to a number of reasons. If it doesn’t have enough light or enough feed this could cause the plant to not produce any flowers. It could also be due to a low temperature or erratic watering. Handwoven Pot Basket, Handmade basket, Kilim pattern basket, Bedroom organizer, Decor basket, Planter baskets, Colorful basket, DCP 4239
