Dung!

There are about ten citrus trees here. At least one tangerine, some orangy things, and some trees that I did not see any fruit on yet.

They are not doing terribly well, because they were not much loved the past few years, like a certain dog. Hardly any water, certainly no fertilizer. So you get yellow leaves and barren trees. Lucky I have relatives far away, who know all about lemons, and the like. Dung! my sister knew, and the roots are very close to the surface my mother said.

Google knew citrus trees love nitrogen fertilizers. So, that means we need to pee under those trees. Which we'd rather not, as they are very prickly, and have nasty thorns.

There are not that many garden centers here, but there was one that had a 1 kg box. At home, with Spanish reading glasses, it became clear you needed to feed about 40-100 grams per tree, depending on, among other things, blossoming (no), setting of fruit (no), winter (no). There was no dosage for neglected citrus, but I decided on 100 grams per tree. That kilo was soon gone. (More was purchased.)

And, lo! Two weeks later: fresh new green, blossom buds!
