This is a neat article that explains how to grow fruit trees in containers. This is something you can do inside a house, on balconies, or on rooftops. It even allows you to grow fruit even if you don’t live in an appropriate growing zone for that fruit.
- The size of the pot DOES matter
- The type of pot can have an impact too
- Dwarf varieties of citrus plants that do well in containers
- Other fruits that grow well in containers
- Meyer lemons go great in large container !
- When to plant
- The ins and outs of fertilizing
It’s a great article with a lot of useful links and tips. However, as I read the article, though, it occurred to me that large containers of soil with fruit trees are HEAVY. So one thing to consider is whether you have a good place to put the plants so they get enough light all year. The other option would be to build or buy a wheeled base that you could put a pot on before filling it with soil. Then you could wheel the plant wherever you wanted during the year.
