Q.My Orange Tree Produced Oranges This Winter, But It’s July And I Don’t See Any Blossoms Or Baby Fruit?
I have been getting LOTS of excellent oranges from my (probably dwarf?) in-the-ground orange tree for 11 years (since I acquired this townhouse in San Jose, California). It looks very healthy. Over the past 11 years, I had never fertilized it, and soaked it about three times a summer. (I know.) It has always had lots of great oranges…but I just noticed that it’s early July and I don’t see any blossoms or baby oranges. Is this a problem? Am I going to be orange-less come Jan/Feb? I actually never pay attention to it…but I was just given a potted lime tree and a box of citrus fertilizer…and now, suddenly “I care”! Please help me!! Thank you so much!!
