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.

Lemon tree is exploding with growth!

9 years ago

My tree has been growing like crazy since I moved it outside. There are flowers and lemons all over it. It is pushing out new growth as well. I am really hoping that I get my first lemon!

I counted 5 baby lemons that have shed their petals and many more still in their petals. This was the first to show up and the biggest!
My calamondin has little buds on it that it started awhile ago but today they look bigger! I do not know whether it will be new growth or its first flowers. Either way, I'm happy to see it grow in other spots than it's huge water spout hahaha! My iPad camera isn't good enough to focus in on the little buds, all the pictures come out blurry.
Right now they are on my deck but I need to find them a new spot that gets that last 3 hours of sunlight. I want them to soak every photon of light up before next winter haha!

    Well, my calamondin has been in off-mode for the past two months or so. Today was the third day outside under cloth, and I certainly hope I will get good growth this summer. Specially on the roots! It will get 6+ hours of straight sunshine in summer, so I do await some good progression to come! :)
