For container planting, choose a pot with drainage holes and fill it with quality citrus-formulated potting soil, setting the tree at the same depth it was growing in its nursery container. Water deeply after planting, then maintain consistent moisture by watering once or twice weekly—check soil moisture by inserting your finger 2 inches deep and only water when it feels dry. Place container-grown trees in a south-facing window, and move them indoors before the first frost in colder climates. Feed during the growing season with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer formulated for citrus plants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft.","offer_id":45814395535546,"sku":"10050","price":170.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/calamondin-orange-tree.jpg?v=1777510218","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/calamondin-orange-tree","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
