Plant in well-draining, acidic citrus soil, selecting a container 1–2 sizes larger than the shipping pot with adequate drainage holes. Water on a consistent weekly schedule, checking soil moisture 2 inches deep—only water when that depth feels dry. During spring and summer, feed with a citrus-formulated fertilizer every six weeks; reduce feeding to every 2–3 months in fall and winter. Hand-pollinate flowers with a fine paintbrush if desired to boost fruit production, though the tree sets fruit naturally without assistance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft.","offer_id":45814283993274,"sku":"30431","price":179.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/owari-satsuma-mandarin-tree-ca.jpg?v=1777509883","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/owari-satsuma-mandarin-tree-ca","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
