The lemon plant produces very fragrant white flowers , which will obviously give rise to its much appreciated fruits: lemons, in fact.
When it begins to flower, the plant is in a very delicate phase and for this reason it must be cared for so that the flowering is prolonged and successful.
So let’s see what we can do at this particular time.
- Water : Giving water to plants, you know, is very important. However, when it comes to flowering lemons, attention should be paid to dosages: make sure that at least 4 cm of the surrounding soil is well dry before watering. If, on the other hand, the lemon is in pots, you can water it more frequently.
- Light : The lemon plant requires a lot of light to grow healthy and lush. For this reason, especially if it is in pots, expose it to direct light from the beginning of spring.
- Fertilizers: to develop new flowers the plant needs nutrients. These can be supplemented with natural fertilizers, especially if the plant is grown in pots.
