To do this, find an actively growing but slightly matured shoot on a lemon tree and cut a small section just below the leaf. Add rooting hormone to the cut to encourage growth.

If a tree has peach leaf curl in a particular year, the disease will inexorably take its course, but measures can be taken to sustain the tree or maximize crop yield: protecting the tree from further rain at temperatures below 16 °C (61 °F), applying greasebands around the trunk to protect from insect infestation spreading the disease ...
Citrus greening is distinguished by the common symptoms of yellowing of the veins and adjacent tissues (hence the "yellow dragon" name given by observing Chaozhou farmers as early as the 1870s [1]); followed by splotchy mottling of the entire leaf, premature defoliation, dieback of twigs, decay of feeder rootlets and lateral roots, and decline in vigor, ultimately followed by the death of the ...
When repotting a rootbound lemon tree, tease the roots out so you can see the size of the root system, and choose a pot that’s about 15% larger than the root system. 3. Choose a well-draining ...
The blight spreads through an infected tree, invading and colonizing the plant's roots, leaves, and trunk. As of 2020, neither the causal agent nor the spreading mechanism of the disease is known. [2] Research by the Citrus Research and Development Foundation posits the blight is caused by an endogenous plant pararetrovirus (EPRV). [3]
Lemon cypress trees naturally maintain a pyramidal shape as they grow and rarely need pruning. However, if your plants produce a few wayward stems, you can always snip them away with clean pruning ...
Leaf symptoms are generally observed on highly susceptible citrus varieties, such as lemons, as well in poorly-managed orchards. The symptoms generally develop from latent infections after the leaves have died. Red-brown, pin-point dots may develop into larger, circular necrotic lesions with gray centers and red or brown margins. [18] [19]
