HOW TO USE

PLANTING IN POTS
1 Citrus require full sun.
2 Fill a large clean pot with the planting mix allowing room to add the new plant.
3 Ensure the pot has sufficient drainage.
4 Turn the plant out of its container and remove any rotten or entirely dried out roots.
5 Position the plant and fill the pot to approximately 4cm below the rim of the pot with mix.
6 Soak with water and protect the plant from the wind.
 

IN-GROUND USE
1 Dig a hole 2-3 times the size of the pot and blend mix 50/50 with your garden soil when planting potted or bagged fruit trees.
 

ONGOING PLANT CARE
• Debco Citrus & Fruit Mix contains a quality 6 month balanced fertiliser but additional fertiliser may be required. Citrus trees require feeding once per season with a suitable controlled release fertiliser.
• Citrus prefer deep watering. Water more often during hot or windy weather when your tree is in flower or forming small fruit.
• Plants should be re-potted with new potting mix when they outgrow the pot or after 12-18 months.
