indoor fruiting trees...

Post by djwesp »

Random...


Does anyone have experience growing dwarf citrus trees indoors? I'm looking for tips, etc, for doing this.

So far I've got two mango trees going well (but they will probably never fruit indoors), and have plans for some paw paws as well.

If you mean paw paw (asimina triloba and not papaya) do you have some kind of dwarf variety?

I love paw paws but in VA they are way too big to fit in a house, and I've never heard of one that you can use in a container

When I moved to CT from AZ, I put a lemon and an orange tree in our sunroom to try to recapture some of the fine citrus I had in the southwest. In 4 years we got one (1) lemon and one (1) orange, so I'm probably not the expert on indoor citrus you want.

I do know where to look, though. Go to Davesgarden.com and look at the trees, fruits, and tropical fruits forums. Lots of information there and in their garden articles as well. If you join (for a small fee) you can ask questions as well.
