Citrus Bush Variety Kit

Four Citrus Varieties for a Rainbow of Flavor! With our Citrus Bush Variety Kit, you can enjoy the sweet and tart tastes of a range of citrus fruits, all from the comfort of your yard. This kit includes one of each: Meyer Lemon Bush (1 gallon) Persian Lime Bush (1 gallon) Key Lime Bush (1 gallon) Calamondin Orange Bush (1 gallon) The Meyer Lemon Bush is sweeter than the average lemon. It’s a cross between sour lemons and sweet oranges, making for a more balanced flavor and an exquisite scent! The Persian Lime Bush is cold-hardy, seedless, and adaptable, so you can brew up your own yummy limeades with ease! The Key Lime Bush, as its name implies, delivers limes perfect for homemade Key Lime Pie. Plus, it’s resistant to pests and diseases! Finally, we’ve included the Calamondin Orange Bush, which produces mini-oranges that are a cross between a mandarin orange and a kumquat. All of these plants are relatively easy to care for, and they can be brought indoors or left outdoors in the warmer temperatures. The Citrus Bush Variety Kit is ideal for adding lively color, juicy fruit, and fragrance to your space! Ready to be the talk of the neighborhood? Order the Citrus Bush Variety Kit today! Planting & Care 1. Planting: Plant each bush in an area where it can receive 6-8 hours of sunlight per day (if indoors, preferably in south-facing windows). Place all of these bushes in containers (with drainage holes) that are larger than their shipped containers, about twice the size. Well-draining soil works best for these bushes. The Persian Lime Bush and Calamondin Orange Bush particularly thrive in humid environments, so mist the leaves daily (especially if you’re growing indoors!). 2. Watering: After watering your plants, allow the top 2 to 3 inches of the soil to dry out completely before the next watering. If you’re not sure when to water, stick your index finger into the soil, down to about 2 inches. If it’s moist, hold off on watering. When you do water the plant, stop once you see water escaping the drainage holes at the base of the pot. 3. Fertilizing: Feed all the bushes during the warmer spring and summer seasons with a citrus-specific fertilizer, once every six weeks. During the fall and winter season, fertilize your plant once every 2-3 months. The same fertilizing regimen should be followed for potted plants – simply ensure that you follow the application instructions written on the fertilizer bag.  For the Meyer Lemon Bush, it’s recommended to apply 2 to 3 inches of organic matter to your soil to conserve moisture for best results.
