my Meyer lemon tree gradually yellowed and dropped every leaf over the course of the past five months, only to bud out again everywhere? Very strange to me.
Hoping it hangs on for a few more weeks until i can put it outside
My flying dragons lose all their leaves...of course they're supposed to
But I was reminded...yet again...at how easily plants can burn when moved from inside to outside.
Without leaves for protection, branches accustomed to low indoor light burn readily...and branches are a little harder than leaves to grow back!
That tree was moved outside on a warm day a couple of weeks ago. The sun was even lower then than it is now...which is still pretty low compared to a month from now. It was only outside for a few hours on one day. All that yellow used to be a nice green
It looks like it's growing buds now...maybe even a few on the burned branches. I'm hoping I only lose a branch or two and not the entire tree.
When you do move it outside, shade the branches for a while. You have been warned
