Q.Container Meyer Dwarf Lemon Tree

Anonymous added on March 21, 2013 | Answered

My lemon tree appears to be doing fine. I have lots of blooms, but my question is about the leaves, which are very curly. Is that a problem, and what should I do?

Try to keep your lemon on the slightly dry side of evenly moist. Citrus do best with consistant watering. They do not appreciate being kept too wet nor allowed to dry out.

Typically citrus leaf curl is caused by aphids or inconsistent watering. Neem oil will help with the aphids. Check the soil to see if it’s too wet or too dry. These articles will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/citrus/tip-on-water-requirements-for-citrus-trees.htm
