Question
I have a lemon tree started from seed over 30 years ago.  It is kept outside (east TN) except when temperatures are below freezing.  It has been repotted over a year ago.  This year it is not putting out new growth  and the
leaves are drooping.  I cut it back when I put it outside this spring.
 Any suggestions?


Answer
Jacqueline,

There could be some residual shock from the repotting, this due mostly to the age of the tree, but I think the pruning may have effected it more.

I would recommend fertilizing the tree to encourage new growth. Keep it well watered, but be careful not to overwater the tree.

Good luck,
