They are really fun to grow. I think it's easier to grow citrus here than in Florida. Florida has so many disease and pest issues with citrus. Here, all we really need to do is protect them from 5 dangerously cold nights a year. It's way easier to protect against cold than pests and disease. Ask my tomatoes 😂

My bloody orange trees is about 20 feet and I always have a sweet bloody orange my friends asked me why bloody orange taste sweet I just told them I waited until Feb-April to pick them. And also I always sent my sister a box of bloody orange. And she so excited to get them every year. I got so much bloody orange every year and I found out they're too expensive to buy. I'm just glad I got them as a birthday present from my husband over 10 years ago.

Ironically, because my nights are a lot cooler than yours in winter, my blood oranges will probably turn out better. It's the cool nights that give the blood oranges that deep color. Exposing it to nights in the 35-45 degree range develops that awesome color, and we get *a ton* of those here in North Carolina. As long as I protect them from the 4-5 nights a year below 25 degrees or so, the rest of the nights are great for this tree. I keep telling people that growing citrus on the Carolina Coast is easier than Florida because it's easier to protect against cold than pests and disease! At least for the backyard gardener. It isn't realistic for commercial protection, but having a couple trees is pretty easy here.

I leave my blood orange outside in temps that are 25 degrees or warmer. However, I do cover it with a piece of fabric if it's going to be colder than 30. Once or twice, we've had a bad forecast where the forecast was 30 and it dropped to 26 degrees, so I left it uncovered, but it didn't take damage. Maybe, I lost a couple leaves that yellowed. However, if it's going to be below 25 degrees, I'll carry it into my garage for the night. That only happens here, on average, 2-3 nights a year. This winter was pretty bad, though, so I had to do it maybe 4-5 times this season.

I’m in the same zone as you in southeastern VA. I would really like to grow citrus but they have proven to hate it here. Do the Moro oranges do better than other varieties?
@2MinuteGardenTips
2 жыл бұрын
While our minimum temperatures each year are similar, my average temp is about 10 degrees warmer in the winter. It does make a difference. I do know of someone in VA Beach growing citrus, though. I believe this is their channel: kzitem.info You will definitely need to grow Moro in a container in your location. They do *very well* in containers, especially if grafted onto a dwarfing rootstock like trifoliate. Moro is the only blood orange I've ever grown, so I can't say how they stack up compared to other blood orange varieties. In your location, you may want to look into Yuzu, Sudachi, Meiwa kumquat and possibly Brown Select satsuma. They may have a chance surviving in ground with a little protection.

What an amazing harvest! "Enjoying the fruits of your labour" I see! so awesome! I purchased an owari satsuma and have a moro on the way after watching your vids. My owari (container) is 2 years old and has not grown much, yet alone produced any fruit. I'm in zone 8a/b PNW Canada. Do you have a specific soil recommendation? Are you using the "5-1-1" mix?
@2MinuteGardenTips
2 жыл бұрын
For citrus, you need a fast-draining mix. The MiracleGro Cactus, Citrus and Palm mix in the orange bag is really good for citrus. You don't want something heavy in peat or coir, because it retains too much moisture. Citrus do not enjoy wet roots, and you need to let the containers dry out periodically. It sounds like you are not feeding your citrus enough. Citrus in containers MUST be fertilized every 2-4 weeks with *soluble* fertilizer. Container-grown citrus can't maintain enough food for them purely organically, because the microbiome is too small and the container can't hold enough food. Growing heavy fruiters like citrus in containers demands regular feeding with strong fertilizers for best results. This video will help you greatly: kzitem.info/news/bejne/1p6QnJuppXSgiaw

It's actually a #7 container. Citrus, particularly grafted on a dwarf rootstock, do well in containers and can be maintained at a small size. Dwarf citrus are not particularly vigorous when in containers, but they are prolific. They respond well with proper care and fertilizing.

Hey MG, Mark from Charlotte. I assume you bring it in when it gets close to freezing? The three citrus I got from Stan a few months ago are starting to bloom. The smaller variegated pink lemon is really a single stem about 3’ but it starting to bloom near the top, I need to prune the main stem to get it to branch. Reckon I should prune in now (losing the buds) or wait till later in the year? Thanks!

I do not bring it inside unless it's going to drop below 25F. I think I only carried this tree in 3 nights all year: the day of the ice storm, and the two lows in the teens back in January. What I do is I place it up against the south wall of my house and put a little piece of frost cloth over it if it's going to be in the mid to upper 20's. This tree has taken 26-27 degrees totally uncovered several times, and 25-28 degrees covered many times. I don't bother covering it for something like 29-32F. Honestly, I probably could have planted it in-ground near the water barrels in the rear if I really wanted to, but I don't think it's grafted onto trifoliate, so I chose not to. I would prune ASAP and try to maintain whatever blooms you can. I have neglected to prune mine, so I'm going to have to take buds off. I need to get on it, but it's been one thing after another!
