Default Re: Magic Citrus Bloom Shot?

Agreed. I should mention that I never seriously intended to grow a grapefruit tree. I was living in Iowa at the time, and I was eating a grapefruit. There was a sprouted seed in the grapefruit. I stuck it in some dirt just to see what would happen. I ended up with a very tiny tree, like maybe a foot tall. When the tree moved with us to Indiana, it grew to several feet. When we moved to Florida, it suddenly shot up to about 15 feet, at which point I really had to plant it in the ground. That's how I ended up with a grapefruit tree. I couldn't just let it die after several years and two major moves. If I seriously wanted to grow grapefruit, I would buy a grafted tree from a nursery.
