Pretty much every citrus tree I have is either just starting to flower or the flowers have started falling

Due to the unusual cold winter only a tangelo i have had indoors, all the other citrus trees need at least one month to start flowering

Zero zip nada.

The Flying Dragon might bloom in a week or so.  The Prague Citsuma maybe in late April.  The rest, not until May.

All my citrus are blooming except Bloomsweet GF. It had a pretty large crop last year so it might be in its alternate year.  Also persimmon, and peaches are bloomed out with a tons of ping pong ball sized peaches. Need to thin them out.

I heard many people in Thailand that is not so easy to grow fingerlimes there, many fruit drops.

I have to find out about that, so far so good....i have seen fingerlime tree's of the same size as mine for sale and they had around 10 fruits each. But those looked very chlorotic, mine looks great green.

Same here on my alano sapodilla.  I got it may of 2019.  Haven't shown any sign of growth yet.  The owner of Champa where I got it from said it was an airlayered tree.

Oh, well.  The satanic, bushy tailed horde are pretty much taking all my green peaches. History repeats.  Star Ruby grapefruits and oranges (n-33, Moro, sanguneli) are blooming nicely! Loquats are tasting great now! Ujukitsu has more flowers than IV ever seen.  So does Chandler pomelo.

Poncirusguy, a New Zealand Lemonade tree grafted on a Sour Orange rootstock is very interesting. I like that combination.  I bet that combination will produce a lot of high quality fruit per size of the tree

Thanks  Millet
I forgot to mention that it has 2 lemons about 1/4 yellow.  I will find out in about 1-2 months.  The tree is small in a 6 gallon bucket.
