My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Should I "feed" my orange tree?

9 years ago

I have an orange tree that I have inside. I do not live in a place where I could have it outside during the winter. For all of my other trees/plants, there is no way I would give them any fertilizer this close to winter. I don't know how I should treat my indoor orange tree, though.


Should I fertilize it so it has food during the winter? Or do they go dormant as well?
