The Satsuma Orange Tree was covered with baby oranges and I was assuming I would need to pick some off to allow the rest to grow. But will wonders never cease- the weaker ones fell off on their own. My husband claims many citruses do this- and with the proof in the pudding, I guess I believe him.

Hey! The same thing happened to our grapefruit tree the other day (oddly enough, after I had already picked off some of the smallest fruit -- apparently I wasn't thorough enough). But you don't have to tell Javi if you think it'll give him a big head or anything.
ReplyDeleteMy Trovita orange and Meyer lemon are doing the same thing right now. I was a little bit afraid they were going to drop all their fruit. But I guess they are smarter than me!
