Re: Growing Citrus
I have a bunch of citrus growing, what I really like also is when they bloom. I could stand around that area and just take in the fragrance. :08:

I have two planted in containers. Got a a few fruits. However, they don't have much fragrance, especially not when compared to the fruits I see in stores. Any idea why?
Thanks,

Re: discussion of bananas grown in water
