I’m hoping that someone on the forum can identify the problem with my lemon tree.

We’ve had it about 12 months, and since then it’s lost the majority of its leaves, and many of the remaining ones have turned yellow.

I’ve just removed the 10 lemons that have grown since last year (not sure when this should be done, they’ve not grown for months and look as if they are on the turn) and added some granular feed to the soil that is designed for citrus plants.

As you’ll have probably guessed I’m not a gardener but would like to save the tree if possible.

Thanks

Thank you, I’ll take a look.
