Q.Lemon tree pollination
I have a Meyer Lemon tree 4ft. tall in a 25 gal pot that I move inside each winter in North Texas.
When the tree blooms inside, is it necessary to pollinate the bloom for lemon production?
The first year produced large fruit, but each year there is less fruit? Do you have any suggestions?I also have a Mexican lime tree 4ft tall that rarely blooms, or produces limes?Thank You

Meyer lemon are self fertile meaning you can get fruit with only one tree but you still need pollination. You can do that easily yourself for the lemon and the lime.
