Rasict plants update:
About 2 weeks ago I moved the poor lemon tree away from the bullying orange plants and bought it a special drip-feeder thingy for citrus plants. It’s supposed to release just the right amount of food.
Of course, when I turned it upside down and put it in the soil – it just emptied itself and gave the lemon tree a few months food in one go. Opps. (Yes, I did follow all the instructions on the tube before you say anything. Meh.) I was ready to throw it away and start again (was admiring mahoosive lemon trees in the garden centre t’other day) when I noticed that it is actually now flowering and thinking about growing some leaves! Yay! That means that not only is it not dead, it’s actually fairly happy now.
Smashing. I do like a happy ending.
