Meyer Lemon Fruit Drop: Repot and Prune to Balance Roots

Cause

10-year-old potted Meyer lemon dropping fruit = root-bound. Root mass exceeds soil volume, can't support fruit load.

Solution

  1. Prune top growth to reduce demand on roots.
  2. Repot after dormancy (winter) into larger container.
  3. Use fresh citrus mix.
